Area and Perimeter

Description

This example demonstrates finding the area of a rectangle using unit tiles. The image shows a rectangle completely filled with tiles, where each tile represents one unit of area. To calculate the area, count the total number of tiles that cover the rectangle. This visual method helps students understand the concept of area as the total number of unit squares within a shape. It reinforces the understanding of area calculation by providing a tangible way to count and verify the space covered by the rectangle.
