 Area and Perimeter
Example Draw a rectangle with sides 4 cm, 3 cm, 4 cm and 3 cm
on a square grid paper.

4 cm

3 cm 3 cm
Each side of the square on
4 cm square grid is 1 cm and its area
is 1 sq. cm.

What is the perimeter of the rectangle?

4 cm + 3 cm + 4 cm + 3 cm = 14 cm
Thus, the perimeter of this rectangle is 14 cm.

Example Draw a rectangle with sides 4 cm, 3 cm, 4 cm and 3 cm
on a square grid paper.

4 cm

3 cm 3 cm
Each side of the square on
4 cm square grid is 1 cm and its area
is 1 sq. cm.

What is the area of the rectangle?

4 cm × 3 cm = 12 sq. cm.
Thus, the area of this rectangle is 12 sq. cm.
