 What is a perimeter?

The perimeter of a shape is defined as the total length of

its boundary.
The unit is cm or m.
Perimeter of a Square= 4*(Side)

Perimeter of a Rectangle= l+l+b+b

=2l+2b
=2(l+b)

 What is a Area?

Area is defined as the total space taken up by a flat (2-D) surface or shape
of an object. It is written in square units(cm2 or m2).
Area of a rectangle= l*b

l= length
b=breadth
How is the formula for area of triangle derived?
Fact:
In a triangle, any of its sides can be considered as
base.
 Measurements of the wall Measurements of the door
Height of the wall(h) = 8m Height of the door = 6m
Breadth of the wall(b) = 10m Breadth of the door = 2m

i)Find the area of the wall including the door.

ii)Find the area of the door.
iii)Find the area of only the painted part of the
wall.
