Area&Perimeter

Hey,,

Perimeter:

To find th perimeter of a shape you have to add up all sides of the shape or object. Like the perimter highway goes all around Winnipeg so i know that to find the perimter of a shape you have to find evey side of it.That is how i tell that from area.


Area:

TO find the area of a shape you multiply LxW. So if i have a rectangle that is 5cm in legnth and 9 cm in width i know that the area of my rectangle is 45cm2.
That is how i know what area is.
