Area and

Perimeter
By: Yessica Flores and Sophia Santana

S.W.B.A.T:
* Find the area and perimeter of the following
shapes:
*circle
* parallelogram

*square
*rectangle
*triangle

* rhombi and kite

Perimeter

Perimeter is the distance around a 2

dimensional shape.
To find perimeter you add all the sides up.
Formula:
s+s+s+s=P

Example 1:

Example 1:
s+s+s+s = P
6+6+6+6 = P
24 km = P

Ex 2

Ex 2
s+s+s+s= P
4+4+4+4= P
16 cm =P

Ex. 3

Ex. 3
s+s+s+s+s= P
1+4+1+5+5= P
16 un = P

Circumference(perimeter of a circle)

ex 1

ex 1
C=2r
C= 2(3.14)10
C= 62.8m

Area

Area - the amount of surface space that a flat

object has.
Area is reported in the amount of square units
ex. cm

Area of a square
Formula for square
area = s
All sides of a square
are the same length .
