PERIMETER OF GEOMETRICAL SHAPES
FORMULA:
[tex]P = 2L + 2W[/tex]
where:
L = is the length
W = is the width
Find the perimeter of each of the following:
1.) A garden 15 meters long and 12 meters wide.
2.) A lot 10 meters long and 7 meters wide.
3.) A swimming pool 20 meters long and 12 meters wide.
4.) The town park 45 meters long and 32 meters wide.
5.) 15m long and 12 meter wide.
SOLUTIONS AND ANSWERS:
[tex]1.)[/tex] A garden 15 meters long and 12 meters wide.
[tex]P = 2L + 2W[/tex]
[tex]P = 2(15 meters) + 2(12 meters)[/tex]
[tex]P = 30 meters + 24 meters[/tex]
P = 54 meters
[tex]2.)[/tex] A lot 10 meters long and 7 meters wide.
[tex]P = 2L + 2W[/tex]
[tex]P = 2(10 meters) + 2(7 meters)[/tex]
[tex]P = 20 meters + 14 meters[/tex]
P = 34 meters
[tex]3.)[/tex] A swimming pool 20 meters long and 12 meters wide.
[tex]P = 2L + 2W[/tex]
[tex]P = 2(20 meters) + 2(12 meters)[/tex]
[tex]P = 40 meters + 24 meters[/tex]
P = 64 meters
[tex]4.)[/tex] The town park 45 meters long and 32 meters wide.
[tex]P =2L + 2W[/tex]
[tex]P = 2(45 meters) + 2(32 meters)[/tex]
[tex]P = 90 meters + 64 meters[/tex]
P = 154 meters
