You'll calculate areas of circles, triangles, and rectangles, then move to volumes of prisms, cylinders, spheres, and cones. Problems often involve scale factors, where changing linear dimensions affects area by the square and volume by the cube. Master these relationships, and you'll handle even complex multi-step questions with confidence.
