Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, surface area, and volume.
1. Find the area of right triangles, other triangles, and special quadrilaterals and polygons by composing into rectangles or decomposing into triangles and
other shapes; apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.
1. Draw polygons in the coordinate plane given coordinates for the vertices; use coordinates to find the length of a side joining points with the same first
coordinate or the same second coordinate. Apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.
