Question

11 the amount of space inside a shape is called which of the following? area surface circumference perimeter

Explanation:

To solve this, we recall the definitions of each term:

• Area: Defined as the amount of space inside a two - dimensional shape.
• Surface: Usually refers to the outer layer of an object, and for a 3 - D object, "surface area" is used for the total area of its outer faces, not the space inside a (2 - D) shape.
• Circumference: Is the distance around a circular shape (the perimeter of a circle), not the space inside.
• Perimeter: Is the distance around the outside of a shape, not the space inside.

So, based on the definition, the amount of space inside a shape is called area.

Answer:

A. Area
