Perimeter - the distance around a figure
You can find the perimeter of any polygon by
adding the lengths of all its sides.

You can find the perimeter of a regular polygon
by multiplying the length of one side by the
number of sides.

Remember a regular polygon has equal sides and
equal angles

The perimeter (P) of a rectangle equals 2 times
the sum of the length (l) and the width (w).
10 cm
P 2 x (l w)
5 cm
P 2 x (10 5)
P 2 x 15
l 10 cm w 5 cm
P 30 cm

Area
8
Area - measure of the surface of a region in
square units.
Examples of Units Square Units
mm mm x mm mm2
cm cm x cm cm2
m m x m m2
in in x in in2
ft ft x ft ft2
yd yd x yd yd2

You can use this formula to find the area of a
rectangle.
Area length x width
A l x w
5 cm width (w)
A 10 cm x 5 cm
10 cm length (l)
A 50 cm2
The area is 50 cm2.
10
There is a special formula for the area of a
square.
(s side)
A s x s s2
5 cm
A s2
5 cm
A 5 cm x 5 cm 52 cm2
A 25 cm2
The area is 25 cm2.
11
You can use the base and height to find the area
of a right triangle.
Math Tip The height is always perpendicular to
the base.
A 1/2 x (b x h)
A 1/2 x (6 x 4)
A 1/2 x (24)
A 12 in2
The area is 12 in2.
Remember solve inside the parenthesis first
12
You can use the formula A 1/2 x (b x h) to find
the area of any triangle.
Math Tip The height is always perpendicular to
the base.
A 1/2 x (b x h)
height (h) 10 cm
A 1/2 x (4 x 10)
A 1/2 x (40)
A 20 cm2
The area is 20 cm2.
base (b) 4 cm
