How do you find the perimeter of any figure?
Find the distance of each side and add to find the total perimeter.
How do you find the perimeter area of a box?
Perimeter=find each perimeter of each side of the box then add them all up area=find each are of each side of the box then add them all up
When finding the perimeter of a figure on a grid why do you not count the spaces inside the grid?
That's because "perimeter" means the distance around something - not the spaces inside. If you count squares inside a figure, you are finding the AREA, not the PERIMETER.
What are formulas for area and perimeter?
Perimeter is the distance around the figure. Add all sides. Area depends on the figure. Triangle --- 1/2 bh Rectangle --- lw. Others --- divide into triangles and find the area of each triangle then add all together.
How do you find the distance around a figure?
The distance around a figure is called a perimeter. The formula to find a perimeter is: width x2 + length x2 = area
To find the surface area of a three dimensional figure you must find the perimeter of a face and then multiply by the height?
False. You must find the area of each of the faces, then add those together.
How do you find area when given perimeter and width?
If you are given the width and the perimeter, then figure out what the length is then calculate the area... hope this helps :)
To find the surface area of the three dimensional figure you must find the perimeter of a face and then multiply by the height?
NO. This is the way to get the volume of a prism, not the surface area of any three-dimensional figure. To find the surface area of a three-dimensional figure, you must find the area of each of its faces and then add the side-areas together.
How do you find the perimeter and area of a irregular figure?
Divide the irregular figure into manageable pieces and work out their individual areas, sum the areas to that of the original figure. Measure the perimeter.
How can you find the ratios of their pereimeters and area?
1). Calculate the perimeter of the figure. 2). Calculate the area of the figure. 3). Divide one by the other.
How do you perimeter?
To find the perimeter of a figure, add all the lengths of the edges of the figure. The sum of the sides is the perimeter.
How do you find an area from perimeter?
Depends on what figure you are working on, each figure has its own formula for the area. So you need to do a sketch and label the relevant quantities which are needed to find the area. By using the perimeter value, find a formula for one quantity in terms of the other(s). Write the area as a function of just one variable. Find the domain of that variable. After that, use the derivative to find the desired global maximum or minimum (the highest or lowest points on the curve), which will give you the maximum or the minimum area of the figure you are interested in. If you have a specific problem, I can help more.
