I. Information:
FORMULA FOR VOLUME, AREA AND PERIMETER
VOLUME
Volume is the amount of space taken up by an object. It is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by
a closed surface, for example, the space that a substance (solid, liquid, gas, or plasma) or shape occupies or
contains. Any unit of length gives a corresponding unit of volume: the volume of a cube whose sides have the
given length. For example, a cubic centimetre (cm3) is the volume of a cube whose sides are
one centimetre (1 cm) in length.
In the International System of Units (SI), the standard unit of volume is the cubic metre (m 3). The metric system also
includes the litre (L) as a unit of volume, where one litre is the volume of a 10-centimetre cube. Thus
1 litre = (10 cm)3 = 1000 cubic centimetres = 0.001 cubic metres, so
1 cubic metre = 1000 litres.
Small amounts of liquid are often measured in millilitres, where
1 millilitre = 0.001 litres = 1 cubic centimetre.
In the same way, large amounts can be measured in megalitres, where
1 million litres = 1000 cubic metres = 1 megalitre.

AREA
Area is the quantity that expresses the extent of a two-dimensional figure or shape or planar lamina, in
the plane. Surface area is its analog on the two-dimensional surface of a three-dimensional object. Area can be
understood as the amount of material with a given thickness that would be necessary to fashion a model of the
shape, or the amount of paint necessary to cover the surface with a single coat. It is the two-dimensional analog of
the length of a curve (a one-dimensional concept) or the volume of a solid (a three-dimensional concept).
Calculation of the area of a square whose length and width are 1 metre would be:
1 metre × 1 metre = 1 m2
and so, a rectangle with different sides (say length of 3 metres and width of 2 metres) would have an area in square
units that can be calculated as:
3 metres × 2 metres = 6 m2. This is equivalent to 6 million square millimetres. Other useful conversions are:

 1 square kilometre = 1,000,000 square metres

 1 square metre = 10,000 square centimetres = 1,000,000 square millimetres
 1 square centimetre = 100 square millimetres.
In non-metric units, the conversion between two square units is the square of the conversion between the
corresponding length units.
1 foot = 12 inches, the relationship between square feet and square inches is
1 square foot = 144 square inches,
where 144 = 122 = 12 × 12. Similarly:

 1 square yard = 9 square feet

 1 square mile = 3,097,600 square yards = 27,878,400 square feet
In addition, conversion factors include:

 1 square inch = 6.4516 square centimetres

 1 square foot = 0.09290304 square metres
 1 square yard = 0.83612736 square metres
 1 square mile = 2.589988110336 square kilometres

PERIMETER
A perimeter is a path that encompasses/surrounds a two-dimensional shape. The term may be used either for the
path, or its length—in one dimension. It can be thought of as the length of the outline of a shape. The perimeter of
a circle or ellipse is called its circumference.
