One of the most difficult mathematical questions in primary school was finding the perimeter and area of a T sectional object. Who can solve this.

13. Answer is 19cm² na. The area of a rectangle = L x W There are two rectangles there with: Rectangle 1 having dimension: 6 x 2 Rectangle 2 having dimension: 3.5 x 2 Area of rectangle 1 = 6 x 2 = 12cm² Area of rectangle 2 = 3.5 x 2 = 7cm² Area of the diagram = area of rectangle 2 + area of rectangle 2 = 12cm² + 7cm² = 19cm² This is very simple to solve |

guobe:Q13 answer is 19cm² Anti spam bot here doesn't like Maths because it banned me for providing the mathematical calculation of the answer |

franchasofficia:How did you calculate the area and also how do you calculate the perimeter |
| Re: Who Still Remembers How To Solve This T Section Taught In Primary School by franchasofficia: 8:59am On Mar 14 |
There are two rectangles in the diagram. Rectangle 1 have a dimension of: 6cm x 2cm Rectangle 2 have a dimension of: 3.5cm x 2cm Area of rectangle is L x W. Find the area of the two separate rectangles and sum them together to get the area of the diagram. |

guobe:Area of a rectangle is L x W. Perimeter is L plus W plus L plus W |

First rectangle is L×W 6*2= 12 Second one is 3.5*2 = 7 Area of the T-shape = addition of the two rectangles forming the T = 12 + 7 19cm |

The Sec School I went to, if you didn't pass Mathematics from SS1 upwards you will be repeated, I didn't know maths, wished I knew but I still passed. Till date I didn't know how I did it. For the records it's Mayflower School at Ikenne. |

guobe:Just break it into 2 rectangles, find the area of each, and add. The perimeter is the sum of all outside lengths. The area is (6 * 2) + (3.5 * 2) = 12 + 7 = 19 cm². The perimeter is (6 * 2) + (2 * 2) + (3.5 * 2) = 12 + 4 + 7 = 23 cm. |

guobe:D 19cmsq is correct. This one na pry4 work. |

guobe:Nothing is difficult there. Separate them into 2 different shapes and find the Area or perimeter. |
| Re: Who Still Remembers How To Solve This T Section Taught In Primary School by UTILITYMAY(m): 4:36pm On Mar 14 |
guobe:This is a very simple question. Area: 19cm² Perimeter: 23cm |
| Re: Who Still Remembers How To Solve This T Section Taught In Primary School by Doyou2019: 4:36pm On Mar 14 |
Na here you go know people wey start with primary school teaching after NYSC ![]() By the way, total area = 19cm² |

Nice one here. Glad to see these answers |

Looks simple now, but was a big headache back then. Thank God it won't be a big deal for my kids. Daddy understands it perfectly now 😂 😂 😂 😂 |

guobe:I used to find this very easy to do. Never knew why it was difficult for people |

UTILITYMAY:Are you sure perimeter is 43 cm? OK you have corrected yourself |

Answer is 19cm² but not enough content |

It was like that too at OGSA, the only school in Akure, ondo state I cant solve any mathematics, I eventually became a Linguist, theres something in Linguistics called Schema, it is actually mathematics in artistic form... Do you understand? i rep Oyemekun Grammar School, UP SCHOOL, THE ONLY SCHOOL.... OGSA angelboy01: |

There is nothing hard about this. Maybe at the time, I may agree. |

guobe:I just found certain things easy and obvious that people said were difficult - like calculus |

Very poor and sloppy diagram. That's not how to label dimensions on a diagram. |
