Finding the Missing Dimensions: L-Shaped Polygons - FREE

Students often struggle computing the correct values of Perimeter and Area L-Shaped Polygons since all the sides are NOT given. The student must translate distances and compute the missing side. This process is easy to do with a little practice. The teacher can divide the L-Shape into two rectangles and transfer the dimensions, and students quickly realize that it is either an addition or subtraction problem to ensure the dimensions are compatible. These three (3) practice sheets will solve th
