What to Focus On
- Perimeter is the total length of the boundary of a closed figure.
- It is found by adding all the sides of a shape.
- Perimeter is measured in units like cm or m.
- All sides of a square are equal.
- Perimeter of a square = 4 × side.
- Opposite sides of a rectangle are equal.
- Perimeter = 2 × (length + breadth).
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Perimeter and area mean the same thing — both tell you 'how big' a shape is.
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, just add length and breadth.
Area is always length times breadth, even for triangles.
Memory Tips
