Skill Level: Easy
Grades: 6th to 9th
Key Learnings:
- Demonstrate that the trapezium area is the average length of its parallel sides multiplied by the perpendicular height. A = h/2(a + b)
- Use the trapezium formula to calculate trapezium areas and convert between area units
- Apply strategies, reasoning, and explain mathematical relationships using other two-dimensional shapes to find the trapezium area
Australian Curriculum:
- Recognise and explain mathematical relationships using reasoning (MA4-3WM).
- Apply appropriate mathematical techniques to solve problems (MA4-2WM)
