This warm-up activity focuses on finding the area and perimeter of various geometric shapes including triangles, trapezoids, and rhombi. Through practical examples, students will learn to calculate areas and solve for unknown dimensions. Example 1 involves a quadrilateral where AC = 35, BF = 18, and DE = 10. Example 2 requires finding the length US of rhombus RSTU with an area of 64 square inches and RT = 8 inches. Example 3 challenges students to determine the height of trapezoid QRST with an area of 210 square yards.
