About these worksheets
These worksheets cover a comprehensive range of quadrilateral measurement skills. Students find the area and perimeter of rectangles, explore rectilinear shapes by decomposing them into smaller rectangles, create rectangles with given area or perimeter constraints, and work with scale factors. Problem sets include whole numbers, decimals, and fractions, and span third through seventh grade standards.

- Find the area of a rectangle by multiplying length × width.
- Find the perimeter of a rectangle by adding all the side lengths.
- Use factor pairs to make different rectangles that still have the same area.
- Compare rectangles to see how changing the side lengths can change the perimeter even when the area stays the same.

About these worksheets
These worksheets present area and perimeter concepts through word problems and three-dimensional shapes. Students read real-world scenarios to determine whether they need to calculate area or perimeter of rectangles, and they find the surface area of prisms and other 3D figures by adding up the areas of each face. Aligned with fourth and sixth grade standards.

- Read a word problem and decide whether it is asking for perimeter or area.
- Find the perimeter of rectangles by adding side lengths.
- Find the area of rectangles using length × width and square units.
- Use the correct units when writing answers (units for perimeter and square units for area).
- Solve real-world measurement situations like fencing, borders, tiling, or covering a surface.
