Unit Goals  

• I can explain that the area of a triangle is half the area of a rectangle.

• I can develop the area formula for a triangle.

• I can apply formulas to find area by using substitution.

• I can find the area of special quadrilaterals, including squares, rectangles, and parallelograms.

• I can decompose complex polygons into triangles and rectangles to find their area.

• I can draw polygons in the coordinate plane given coordinates for the vertices.

• I can represent three-dimensional figures by drawing nets made up of rectangles and triangles.

• I can calculate the volume of a right rectangular prism, including when the edge lengths are fractional.

• I can calculate the surface area of rectangular and triangular prisms.

• I can use these skills to solve real-world problems involving area, volume, and surface area.
