What is perimeter? Which units we use to show it?

Perimeter is the distance around a polygon.

It's the sum of all the sides of a polygon.

We use linear units such as: mm, cm, m, km,

135 = b x 15 

b = 9 m

500

The area of this triangle is 80 m2. Find the missing height. 

A = b x h /2

80 = 20 x h /2

160 = 20 x h 

h = 160 /20

h = 8 m 

500

Find the surface area of this triangular prims.

Area of the 2 triangles: 2 x ( 8 x 6 /2 ) = 48 cm2

Area of rectangle 1: 4 x 8 = 32 cm2

Area of rectangle 2: 4 x 10 = 40 cm2

Area of rectangle 3: 4 x 6 = 24 cm2

Surface Area = 48 + 32 + 40 + 24 = 144 cm2
