Area and Perimeter

Description

This example demonstrates calculating the area of a rectangle using a grid. The image shows a rectangle overlaid on a grid, where each square represents one unit of area. To find the area, count the total number of squares within the rectangle. This method visually illustrates the concept of area as the amount of space inside a shape. The formula for finding the area of a rectangle is: Area = Length x Width. This example helps students understand how to calculate area by visualizing the multiplication of length and width as counting squares.
