Broad Correlation
Broad Correlation
A square with side length 1 unit, called "a unit square," is said to have "one square unit" of area, and can be used to measure area.
Broad Correlation
A plane figure which can be covered without gaps or overlaps by n unit squares is said to have an area of n square units.
Broad Correlation
Measure areas by counting unit squares (square cm, square m, square in, square ft, and improvised units).
Broad Correlation
Relate area to the operations of multiplication and addition.
Broad Correlation
Find the area of a rectangle with whole-number side lengths by tiling it, and show that the area is the same as would be found by multiplying the side lengths.
Broad Correlation
Multiply side lengths to find areas of rectangles with whole-number side lengths in the context of solving real world and mathematical problems, and represent whole-number products as rectangular areas in mathematical reasoning.
Broad Correlation
Use tiling to show in a concrete case that the area of a rectangle with whole-number side lengths a and b + c is the sum of a × b and a × c. Use area models to represent the distributive property in mathematical reasoning.
Broad Correlation
Recognize area as additive. Find areas of rectilinear figures by decomposing them into non-overlapping rectangles and adding the areas of the non-overlapping parts, applying this technique to solve real world problems.
