is the distance the amount of
around the outside space inside the
of a shape. perimeter.

square
To find the perimeter To find the area
10cm
perimeter = L+L+L+L area = L x L
= 10+10+10+10 = 10 x 10
10cm = 40cm = 100cm2

in short: perimeter =4L in short: area = L2


L (length)

rectangle
To find the perimeter
12cm To find the area
perimeter = L+W+L+W
= 12+8+12+8 area = L x W
8cm W (width) = 40cm = 12 x 8
= 96cm2
in short: perimeter =2L+2W
L (length)

With complex shapes, it is easier to break it down into smaller parts.
