Dr. Nick from Creative Maths explains the concepts of perimeter, area, volume, and surface area, focusing on rectangles and cuboids. The video covers how to calculate these measurements, their units, and practical applications. Examples include calculating the perimeter for fencing, area for tiling, volume for filling spaces, and surface area for painting. The video aims to help viewers identify which measurement to use in different situations and understand the relevant formulas.
