Calculate the hypotenuse of a right triangle, given the other two side lengths.

This question tests the students ability to calculate the area of different 2D shapes given the units and measurements required. The formulae for the areas are available if required but students are encouraged to try to remember them themselves.

The shapes are: a rectangle, a parallelogram, a right-angled triangle, and a trapezium.
