What to Focus On
- Perimeter means the length of the border of a shape.
- The border is the outer edge of the shape.
- If all sides are equal, perimeter is found by adding all sides.
- Area means the region covered by a shape.
- Triangles, squares, and rectangles tile a surface without gaps and overlaps.
- Circles leave gaps when used to cover a region.
- 1 unit square is a square with side 1 unit.
- A square is used as the unit because all its sides are equal.
- Square grids make area measurement easy.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Perimeter and area mean the same thing.
If the area of a rectangle increases, the perimeter must also increase.
Any shape can tile a surface without gaps and overlaps.
Memory Tips
