At the end of the chapter , students will be able to
● Understand the concept of perimeter and area of a closed figure .
We know that plane figures have their closed regions and their
boundaries . We need some methods to measure them . The concept of
Perimeter and Area arises from this.
The idea of Perimeter and Area is widely used in our daily
life:
A farmer who wants to fence his field or a farmer who wants to
plough his field uses this concept.
An engineer cannot construct any building without this
idea.
A sports teacher needs the concept of Perimeter and Area
while preparing the tracks.
An artist use this idea of perimeter and area to create beautiful
designs and different craft work.
PERIMETER
If we start from the point ‘s’ in each figure and move along the line segments, then
we again reach the point ‘s’ , that means we have made a complete shape in each
figure. The distance thus covered is known as the perimeter of the figure.
3cm 3cm
Perimeter of the figure = sum of the length of all sides
= 3cm+3cm+2.5cm= 8.5cm
2.5cm
6cm
1cm
Perimeter of the figure=sum of the length of all sides
2cm
= 6cm+6cm+2cm+1cm+1cm=16cm

Perimeter of the figure = sum of the length of the boundary
3cm 3cm
= 2cm +3cm +3cm +3cm = 11cm
PERIMETER OF A RECTANGLE
AND A SQUARE
l
If the length of a rectangle is l and breadth is b,
b b then the perimeter = l + b + l + b =2l + 2b
= 2(l + b)

EXAMPLE - 1
Find the perimeter of the rectangle whose length is 32.5cm and
breadth is 27.5 cm.
[2]
Raghu is having a chessboard whose each side is 26.5cm. Find the perimeter of
the chessboard. [2]
SOLUTION:-
Length of each side of the square = 26.5cm
So, its perimeter = 4 x side [0.5]
= 4 x 26.5cm [0.5]
= 106cm [1]
Akshaya goes three times around a rectangular field whose length breadth are 25m
and 19m respectively. How much distance does he cover ? [3]
Solution :
Given , length of the rectangular field= 25m 25 cm
Its breadth = 19m
So, perimeter of the field = 2 x (l +b) 19 cm
= 2 x (25m + 19m) [2]
= 2 x 44m = 88m
If Akshya goes once around the field, he covers 88m.
So ,distance he covers when he moves three times around the field
= 3 x 88m= 264m [1]
Akshya covers 264 m.
EXAMPLE -4
The length of one side of a square field is 25m. Find the cost of fencing the field
at the rate of 118 per metre. [3]
Solution : {We know that fencing refers to the perimeter of the field, so here
we have to find the perimeter of the field}
25m
Given, length of each side of the square field = 25m
so, perimeter of the field that is to be fenced
= 4 x 25m = 100m
[2]
Cost of fencing 1m square field = 18
So, cost of fencing 100m square field= 118 x 100m= 1800 [1]
The cost of fencing the square field is 1800.
LET US TRY…………..
Dear students , look at these closed figures .All of them occupy some region of the flat
surface.
LET US TRY TO FIND OUT WHICH ONE OCCUPIES MORE REGION……….

AREA
The measure of the surface enclosed by a closed figure is called its AREA.
AREA OF A RECTANGLE :
l If the length of a rectangle = l
b b Its breadth = b
Then its area = l x b
l AREA OF THE RECTANGLE = LENGTH X BREADTH
AREA OF A SQUARE: If the length of each side of a square= a
Find the area of a rectangle whose length is 3m and breadth is 75cm. [2]
Solution : 3m = 300cm
Given, the length of the rectangle = 3m 75 cm
= 300cm
[0.5]
Its breadth = 75cm
So ,its area = length x breadth
[0.5]
= 300cm x 75cm
= 22500 sq cm
[1]
The area of the rectangle is 22500 sq cm.
EXAMPLE -6
Find the area of a square tile whose one side is 15.6 cm.
[2]
Solution :
Given, each side of the square tile = 15.6cm
So , its area = side x side
[0.5]
= 15.6 cm x 15.6 cm 15.6 cm
[0.5]
= 243.6 sq cm
[1]
The area of the square tile is 243.6 sq cm
EXAMPLE -7
Vineet wants to polish the floor of a room which is 140cm long and 120cm wide. The
charges for polishing the floor is 52 per square metre. What will be the cost of
polishing the floor of the room ? [4] Solution : {We know
that polishing of the floor refers to the area of the
floor. So we have to find the area of the floor}
Given , length of the floor = 140 cm
= =1.4m [0.5]
Its breadth = 120cm
= = 1.2 m [0.5]
So , the area of the floor of the room = length x breadth
= 1.4m x 1.2m = 1.68sq m. [1.5]
Cost of polishing 1 sq.m. floor = 52
So, cost of polishing 1.68 sq m. floor= 52 x 1.68 = 87.36 [1.5]
The cost of polishing the floor is 87.36.
EXAMPLE - 8
A square park is to be watered. If one side of the park is 4.2 m, find the
area to be watered.
[2]
Solution : -
Given, one side of the square park = 4.2 m
So , the area of the park to be watered = side x side [0.5]
= 4.2m x 4.2m
[0.5]
= 17.64 sq.m.
[1]
RECTANGLE: -
Length = Breadth =
Length = - breadth
Breadth = - length

EXAMPLE - 9
A rectangular garden is 230m long and its area is 13,800sq. m. Find the
width of the garden. [2]
SOLUTION:-
Given, the area of the rectangular garden= 13,800sq. m.
Its length= 230 m
So, its width = [0.5]
= [1.5]
= 60m
The width of the garden is 60m.
EXAMPLE - 10
The area of a square of side 8cm is the same as that of a rectangle of length
32cm. What is the breadth of the rectangle? [4]
