Part II – True or False (10 points)
Directions: Write T if the statement is correct and F if it is wrong.
1. A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides.
2. A triangle has two right angles.
3. To estimate area on a grid, count only the full squares and ignore partial ones.
4. The area of a trapezoid can be estimated using the grid method.
5. In real-life, area measurement is useful for tasks like flooring and gardening.
6. A half-filled square is equivalent to about ½ of a full square in area estimation.
7. The unit 'square meter' can be written as 'm²'.
8. Counting half-filled squares as full squares will give an accurate estimation.
9. A triangle’s area can be estimated by combining half-filled squares into full ones.

1. Area
2. Trapezoid
3. Triangle
4. Parallelogram
5. Grid squares
6. Square meter (m²)
7. Half-filled square
8. Surface
9. ½ × base × height
10. base × height
Part IV - Sample Answers:
1. Full squares: 120 → 120 × 1 m² = 120 m²; Half squares: 40 × 0.5 = 20 m². Estimated area =
120 + 20 = 140 m².
2. Full squares: 45 → 45 × 1 m² = 45 m²; Half squares: 20 × 0.5 = 10 m². Estimated area = 45
+ 10 = 55 m².
