3. PERIMETER Is the distance around a figure, the “OUTSIDE”
+ ADD + (Find the sum of all the sides)
Imagine a backyard, the Perimeter is the fence that shapes the backyard
P = = 160 ft

4. AREA
Is the amount of space (square units) found “INSIDE” the boundary of a 2D shape
Measured in “Square Units” (m , in , ft , yd )
× MULTIPLY × (Rectangle or Square = L × W) 2 2 2 2
8 ft
A = L × W 8 x 8 = 64 ft 2
8 ft
