In this ACT Math prep video, we cover how to find areas of basic shapes and polygons such as triangles and rectangles. We also cover how to use subtraction of areas to find the area of irregular shapes such as hexagons. Finally, the problem finishes by expressing areas as a ratio and reducing a ratio to lowest terms. Ratios and areas are topics that are guaranteed to show up on the ACT math test, so a problem that uses both concepts is good practice for the test.
