Volume, Area, and Perimeter Concepts

This video tutorial explains the concepts of perimeter, area, and volume using simple geometric shapes. It begins with an introduction to these concepts, followed by a detailed explanation of how to calculate the perimeter and area of a square. The tutorial then transitions to discussing volume, using a cube as an example to illustrate how volume is measured in three dimensions. The video emphasizes the different units used for each measurement: meters for perimeter, square meters for area, and cubic meters for volume.
