perimeter
Perimeter is the distance around
the outside edge of a flat object.
Perimeter is reported as a
total number of linear units.

Let’s do these problems
together.
Two neighbors build swimming
pools. This is what the pools
look like.
Which family has the pool with
the bigger swimming area?
Family A
Family B
The area of Family A’s pool is?
8 square units.
The area of Family B’s pool is?
7 square units
Family A
Family B
Now look at those same two pools. Which
family has more side panels of the pool to
clean?
The perimeter of Family A’s pool is 12 units long.
The perimeter of Family B’s pool is 14 units long.

Additional Example 2: Using a Formula to Find
Perimeter
Find the perimeter P of the rectangle.
12 cm
3 cm
P = 2l+ 2w
P = (2 • 12) + (2 • 3) Substitute 12 for l and 3 for w.
P = 24 + 6 Multiply.
P = 30 Add.
The perimeter is 30 cm.
Check It Out: Example 2
Find the perimeter P of the rectangle.
15 cm
2 cm
P = 2l + 2w
P = (2 • 15) + (2 • 2) Substitute 15 for l and 2 for w.
P = 30 + 4 Multiply.
P = 34 Add.
radius
• Diameter-a line that cuts the circle in half from end to
end
diameter
Circumference
• Circumference is the distance around the circle. Like
the perimeter.
Pi
• Pie is a special number. It is the ratio of the circumference and the
diameter
• Pi goes on forever!!!!!!!!!!!
