The document discusses calculating the perimeter of rectilinear shapes through various exercises, including identifying the number of fence panels, finding differences in perimeters, and calculating specific perimeters. It also includes a discussion about the reasoning behind perimeter comparisons between shapes and tasks involving drawing shapes with specific perimeter requirements. Additionally, it poses a question regarding the affordability of a painting job based on given costs and dimensions.

Shape A
must have a greater
perimeter than shape A B
B because it has
longer sides.

The longest
side of my shape is A
15cm. The shortest
B
side is 3cm.
