What is Perimeter?

Introduction to What is perimeter?

In this section let me help you on what is perimeter. The perimeter is the total distances around the outside of a two - dimensional shape (2D). We can calculate it by collating together all the lengths of a shape. The polygon of perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all its sides.

We can also define perimeters as : The distance around a figure is called the perimeter of the figure.

Closed Curve: A curve which begin and ends at the same point is called a Closed Curve.

Simple closed Curve : A closed Curves which doesn't intersect itself is called a Simple closed Curve.This could also help us on percentage increase formula

Unit of Perimeter : Dimensional Perimeter -1 is measured in linear units. Example such as feet or meters.
