Homework #20 Due June 19

Perimeter and Area (review)

The perimeter is the length of the outline of a shape. To find the perimeter of a rectangle or square you have to add the lengths of all the four sides. However, the area is measurement of the surface of a shape (the inside).

Draw a detailed plan of your home and find the perimeter and area of the built up area and individual rooms of your house. Ask your parents to help you (to measure). The picture shows what your drawings must be like.
