This series of worksheets challenges you to draw upon your knowledge of math by not asking for a simple area or perimeter of a whole figure or shape. You are asked to determine those measures of a shape within a shape. We start by using rectangles, because everyone is usually solid working with that shape. We advance in a later section of our algebra sheets working with circles and even ovals. Students that complete these sheets will learn how to determine the area and perimeter of nested rectangles using the information provided about their lengths and angles (we also provide every formula you may need on each sheet).

Use these worksheets to teach your students how to find the area of a space within a shape such as a rectangle within a rectangle. Students will practice using formulas based on the angles and lengths of each of the given shapes.
