1. Mental Computation Drill: Finding the Perimeter of Polygons

Class on our past lesson in math we

learned how to get the perimeter of a
polygon.

Now we will have a short game about

perimeter.

I will call two (2) of you to answer or

solve it mentally. Just give the kind of
Polygon and its perimeter enable to
win.

Are you ready class? Yes sir!

The first one who can give the correct

answer will be challenge by another.
Alright, let us start our game. Okay let
start with Paolo and Catherine.

What kind of polygon and what is the

perimeter of this object?
(flashes a card with polygon and
given value in their respective side)

Side=8cm

Yes, Paolo Sir, that polygon is a square and its

perimeter is 32cm.

Correct!
You may take your seat now Catherine

Who wants to challenge Paolo?

Yes, Jimaica

Ready? 1,2,3
(flashes another card)

12cm

5cm

What is your answer Jimaica? Sir, that polygon is a rectangle and

its perimeter is 34cm.
Correct Maica!
You may take your seat Paolo.
Who wants to challenge Jimaica?

Yes, Melissa.

Give the kind of polygon and its perimeter

of this object.

Yes, Melissa? That kind of polygon is a rectangle

and its perimeter is 30meters.
Jimaica, you may take your seat now.
Any challenger? Yes Maica.

Ready Maica and Melissa?

1,2,3
 Sir that kind of polygon is a
Yes, Maica? Square and its perimeter is 48cm.

You got it right.

You may take your seat now Melissa.

Who wants to challenge Maica? Okay our last

challenger Reynaldo.

Get ready here we go.

Yes Maica again! Sir that kind of polygon is a

triangle and its perimeter is
30meters.
Our winner is Maica, give her a round of
applause.
2. Motivation
a. Show the following:
A B

Cllas, what is the Perimeter of Figure A? Sir, figure A is rectangle and its
Yes Jon Javee perimeter is 24 square units.

Very good Jon Javee The perimeter of figure b is perimeter

How about object B? Avy Joy 16 square units.

Very good Avy Joy,

B. Developmental Activities
1. Presentation

Alright class lesson for today is about

the Formula for finding the Area of
square and rectangle.

We will start from the area of square .

The AREA of Square is = (Side)2 or s2

What is the area of square? Melissa The area of a square is (side)2 or s2

I have an example

Area of Square = S2
Or A =S2

Substitute the value of the side (s).

A =6cm2

A =6cm x 6cm
A=36cm2

So the area of this square is 36cm2.

Alright, let’s try another example

What is the area of a square whose side
is equal to 7cm. Who can try to solve
this on the board? Yes Ian

Are you through Ian? Yes sir

So, what is your answer? Sir, the Area of a square whose sides is
measuring 7cm is 49cm2

Very good
Yes sir
Now we will go to rectangle?

The formula to find the area of a

rectangle is length times the width.
Please repeat Jovell
To find the area of a rectangle we
Correct Jovell. multiply the length by its width or
I have an example length times the width.

If the length is 10cm and width is 5cm

what is the area of the rectangle?

Area of Rectangle = l x w
Given:
L = 10 cm
W = 5 cm

Substitute:
What is the given length? Sir 10cm,
How about the width? 5cm sir.
Correct. So if we multiply 10cm by 5cm
the answer is what?
A = 10cm x 5 cm
 That is right. Sir 50cm2
A = 50 cm2

So the area of this rectangle is 50cm2.

Let’s try another example. If rectangle

has the length of 7cm and the width is
4cm what is the area of the rectangle? A(rectangle)= l x w
Who can show the answer on the = 7cm x 4cm
board? Yes, Noemi A= 28cm2

a. Give more examples.

A(rectangle)= l x w
Who can answer this on the board?
= 8cm x 4cm
Yes Maica answer number one, and
A = 32cm2
Aerlene for number two.

A(square)= s2
=(11cm)2
A= 121cm2
Very good Maica and Aerlene.

b. Activity: Group Work (triads)

a. Each group constructs the following on bond paper and indicates the
dimensions in cm. (They have to measure the actual dimension of the figures.)
 Square, rectangle.

Class we will have a group work,

group your selves into 3. Bring out
your rulers and pencil; each group will
construct the following on a bond
paper: square, rectangle.

Alright do it now. (everyone will look for their

desired group mates)
Listen, measure the dimensions, then
write the formula for the area and
solve for the area of each figure. Do it
for 20mins.
 (after 10 minutes)

Okay Aerlene’s Group show to us your (the called groups will show what
work. they have done and explain their
work)

Very good everyone.

2. Fixing Skills

Direction: Given the following objects find the dimension, then solve for the
area.

Class with the same group and

your ruler, pencils, and a bond
paper. Measure the dimension of
the following.
-A long bond paper
-Teacher’s table
-A memo pad
-one of the charts in the room

After your work write all the

members at the back of your work.
Do that for 15 minutes. Yes sir

(After 15 minutes)

Pass your work paper.

3. Generalization
Class again let’s have a recap. Sir, to find the area of a rectangle
we multiply the length by its width
What is the formula to get the area or length times the width.
of a rectangle?
Bryan Anthony.

Very good. The formula to get the area of a

How about the area of a square? square is (side)2 or s2
Crystal

Very good.

C. Application

Direction: Draw the give figure with its dimension. Write the formula in finding its area then
solve.
1. A rectangle whose length is 15cm and its width is 10cm
2. A square whose side is 3.5cm
3. A rectangle whose length is 20cm and the width is 25.5 cm.
4. A square whose side is 5cm.
 IV. Evaluation
A. Direction: Write the formula for the area of the following:

1) rectangle
2) square

B. Direction: Solve for what is being asked.

1.) 2.)

V. Assignment
Solve. Show neat and clear solutions.
1. A rice field is in the form of a rectangle. If its length is 38m and its width is 25m,
how many square meters can be planted with rice?
2. A square flower plot has a side of 5m. What is its area?
3. A glass top of an office table has a length of 105cm and a width of 61cm. what is
its area?
4. A four equal sided wall clock has a side of 13cm. what is its area?
