Angela had a rectangular piece of paper and then cut a rectangle out of a corner as shown at right. Find the area and perimeter of the resulting shape.
Perimeter is the distance around the exterior of a figure.
Area is the number of 'squares' needed to cover the interior of a figure.
Divide this shape into smaller rectangles to find the area.
