TMN3704ASSIGNMENT 4
DUE DATE: 15 AUGUST 2024
, ACTIVITY 1
1.1 Define the concept of "area."
Area is the measure of the amount of space inside a two-dimensional boundary or shape. It
is expressed in square units (e.g., square meters, square centimeters). In practical terms,
area quantifies the surface covered by a shape or object.
1.2 Identify and explain any two key concepts from the definition of an area given
above.
Two-dimensional boundary or shape:
This refers to the outline or perimeter of a flat figure that has length and width but no depth.
Examples include squares, rectangles, circles, and irregular polygons.
Understanding that area pertains to two-dimensional figures helps differentiate it from other
measurements like perimeter (which is the length around a shape) or volume (which is the
space within a three-dimensional object).
Square units:
These are the units used to measure area. A square unit is a square with sides of one unit
length. Common units include square meters (m²), square centimeters (cm²), and square
inches (in²).
Recognizing that area is measured in square units emphasizes the concept that area
quantifies how many unit squares can fit inside a given shape. This understanding is crucial
for calculating and comparing areas.
