How to find the perimeter of shapes, its designation, measurement

Usually we deal with different life situations in the ways we are used to. In fact, there may be more suitable options, as well as formulas in mathematics for solving one problem. In this article, we will look at how to calculate the perimeter of a shape in different ways.

Perimeter detection

Perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides of the polygon.

What is the letter for the perimeter? Capital Latin P . Under the designation P , it is convenient to write the name of the figure in small letters so as not to get confused in the tasks along the way.

What is the perimeter measured in? In the same units as the length — for example, millimeter, centimeter, meter, foot, inch, cubit, etc.

If, in the conditions of the problem, the lengths of the sides are transferred in different units of length, we will not be able to find out the perimeter of the figure. For the correct solution, you need to convert all data into one unit of measure.

Solve your math homework for 5.

Detailed solutions will help you understand the most difficult topic.

Formulas for finding the perimeter

As we just learned, the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all the sides of a polygon. So, in order to find it, we need to know the lengths of these sides. Let’s see how to find the perimeter using a few examples.

Equilateral polygon

An equilateral triangle has all sides equal. So, the perimeter of an equilateral triangle can be found as the product of the length of the side by their number, i.e. by 3.

P = 3 ⋅ a , where a is the length of the side.

The perimeter of any other equilateral polygon can be found in the same way: by multiplying the length of its side by their number. For example, a square and a rhombus have all sides equal, which means that their perimeter can be found using the formula P = 4 ⋅ a , where a is the length of the side.

And the formula for any equilateral n-gon will be: P = n ⋅ a , where a is the length of the side, n is the number of sides.

Rectangle and parallelogram

A rectangle and a parallelogram have opposite sides equal, which means that finding their perimeter is easy, knowing two adjacent sides.

P = 2 ⋅ (a + b) , where a is one side, b is the adjacent side.

Circle

A circle has no perimeter because it is not a polygon. But it has a length that can be found by knowing the radius. The circumference of a circle is the product of pi times two radii, or the product of pi times the diameter.

L = d ⋅ π = ​​2 ⋅ r ⋅ π , where d is the diameter, r is the radius, π is a constant that expresses the ratio of circumference to diameter, it is approximately equal to 900 13 3.14 .

You can learn all the formulas, or you can, remembering the definition of the sum of all sides, each time be smart and calculate yourself. Let’s practice how to determine the perimeter of shapes!

Solving problems

The area of ​​a rectangle is 80 cm 2 , length is 10 cm. What is the perimeter of the figure?

How to solve:

  • To use the formula P = 2 × (a + b), we need to find the width;
  • Since S = a × b, to find one side it is necessary to divide the area by the known side: 80 : 10 = 8 cm;
  • Next, we substitute the known data into the formula: (10 + 8) × 2 = 36 cm;

Answer: 36 cm.

An isosceles triangle has a perimeter of 40 cm and its base is 6 cm long. What is the length of the other two sides?

How we solve:

  • We know that the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides, which means that if we subtract the side of the base from this perimeter, we get the sum of the two remaining sides: 40 − 6 = 34 cm;
  • It is known that an isosceles triangle has two equal sides;
  • Next, divide the resulting amount by two: 34: 2 = 17 cm;

Answer: the other two sides are equal to 17 cm.

The radius of the circle is equal to the perimeter of an equilateral pentagon with a side of 4 cm. Find the circumference of the circle.

How to solve:

  • The perimeter of an equilateral pentagon is 4 × 5 = 20 cm, so the radius of the circle is 20 cm;
  • The circumference is π × 2 × 20 = 40π cm;

Answer: 40π see
