Mensuration section at grade 11

This is a rather simple section if learners have a necessary foundation towards exploring complicated shapes of problems involving Surface Area and Volume. I encountered a huge challenge with my grade 11 today as they seem to have not taken this section seriously from lower grades, now they can't even remember the rectangle, square areas formula. Anyway I tried some basic shapes to make sure that they remember triangle formula as well.

It was really a stumbling block for me to continue to grade 11 complicated sections, however I will persuade them and see to it that they grasp necessary information on this section as it prepares them for careers in quantity surveying and the like.
