This math topic focuses on practicing the identification and application of formulas for calculating the area of simple shapes. The questions involve determining which shape's area a given formula calculates. Formulas featured include those for calculating the areas of squares, rectangles, and triangles. Each question is associated with a visual representation of multiple shape choices and requires the student to match the formula to the correct shape. This is part of a broader unit aimed at practicing area calculations.
