Here is an area of parallelograms practice worksheet in which learners sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve six story problems.

Fifth graders will use geoboards to construct parallelograms. They will determine the area of a rectangle and then apply that thinking to determine the area of a parallelogram. Note: The format of this lesson is much like a PowerPoint,...

Practice counting, tallying, and sorting shapes with this math challenge. Scholars examine a group of shapes, tallying the amount in four categories: quadrilaterals, parallelograms, rectangles, and squares. Then, they color in any shapes...

What type of shape is this? Learners practice identifying shape attributes as they name a parallelogram and an oval and count the sides of a cube and a triangle. There are multiple-choice answers for the shape-name questions, so...

Explore some of the lesser-known shapes in this matching activity: oval, trapezoid, parallelogram, cross, and hexagon. Learners examine a set of the shapes and match them to a list of names. It may be confusing for some to...

In this circumference worksheet, learners solve and complete 5 different figures illustrated on the sheet. First, they cut out each shape found on the bottom. Then, students use the shapes on the left as clues to create the corresponding...

Take young mathematicians on an exploration of the world of 3-D geometry with this seven-lesson unit. After first defining the terms perimeter, area, and volume and how they apply to the real world, students continue on...

Learners find the area and perimeter of regular polygons and composite figures and examine the effect on the area and perimeter of a figure if the dimensions are multiplied by a constant. The nine page worksheet contains thirty-seven...

In this perimeter and area worksheet, learners find the perimeter and area of polygons. They use the proper formula to find the perimeter and area of circles, parallelograms, triangles, and rectangles. Students complete solve ten problems.

Use this geometry review worksheet to have learners complete nine problems involving transformations, area, volume, and unit conversions. They answer one multiple choice question on estimating lengths.

Learners solve and complete four various types of problems. First, they show on the diagram why the area of a triangle is given by a formula. Then, pupils find the area of each triangle and parallelogram illustrated, They also circle the...

Use your pupils' sense of curiosity to explore the Parallelogram Law. Here is an activity that outlines a complete lesson plan from beginning to end, allowing pupils to follow a conjecture through to the proof stage.

Students explore characteristics of shapes by making and using tangram sets. They discover how the tangram pieces are related to one another, and determine how many different combinations of the triangles, squares, and parallelograms in...

In this transformations worksheet, pupils draw the transformations of the triangles and parallelograms in graphs. They complete four drawings.

Everyone knows that opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, but can you prove it? Challenge pupils to use triangle congruence to prove properties of quadrilaterals. Learners complete formal two-column proofs before moving on to...

Find the area of triangles, rectangles, and parallelograms using this metric worksheet.

Flip, turn, and slide about the coordinate plane. Pupils define the rigid motions and experiment with them before determining the relationships of the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines. The sixth unit in a nine-part series...

Students demonstrate their comprehension of shapes and their properties. They work in small groups. Students review the following terms: property, polygon, quadrilateral, and parallelogram. They read Shape Up! Fun With Triangles and...

For this online math worksheet, students solve a variety of geometry problems which utilize parallelograms. This excellent resource allows the students to check their answers, and to get "hints" should they run into difficulties. A...

Learning how to define vocabulary words related to solving parallelograms will assist your learners in identifying different parallelograms. They use the navigator to view different shapes created by moving the parallelogram around.

What are these shapes? Scholars match seven shapes to their names: rhombus, sphere, square, cone, circle, triangle, and parallelogram. Although there isn't much to this worksheet, the shapes are nicely colored and it would...

These floors were made for learning. Pupils use coordinate planes drawn on the classroom floor using tape to investigate parallelograms. They measure lengths, angles, and slopes to identify properties of parallelograms.

What's the point of looking at triangles when trying to draw parallelograms? Given three non-collinear points, pupils determine and justify all possible points that would create a parallelogram. They then analyze the four triangles that...

Expand area problems to incorporate prior knowledge. Pupils begin by reviewing the formulas for finding the area of parallelograms and triangles. The scholars apply previous learning of trigonometric ratios and the Pythagorean Theorem to...
