Day 35 - Finding Perimeter of composite figures

Front

What is the definition of perimeter?

Back

Perimeter is the total distance around the outside of a polygon, calculated by adding the lengths of all its sides.

Front

How do you find the perimeter of a rectangle?

Back

How do you calculate the perimeter of a composite figure?

Back

To calculate the perimeter of a composite figure, find the perimeter of each individual shape and then sum them up, ensuring to account for any shared sides.

Front

What is the perimeter of a square with a side length of 5 cm?

Back

The perimeter of a square is calculated using the formula P = 4 * side. Therefore, P = 4 * 5 cm = 20 cm.
