Worksheet Description

This worksheet is all about calculating the perimeters of parallelograms and rhombuses. Students are given various shapes with specific side lengths and need to find the total distance around each figure. Clear formulas for each shape type are provided to guide the calculations. Additionally, there are practical word problems included to further test their understanding of perimeters in everyday contexts.

This worksheet aims to teach students the essential math skill of determining the perimeter of geometric shapes, specifically parallelograms and rhombuses. It helps students practice their addition skills as they sum up the lengths of all sides of the given shapes. The exercise also enhances their understanding of geometric properties and terminology. By working through these problems, students will improve their problem-solving skills and gain confidence in applying mathematical concepts to real-world scenarios.
