The perimeter of any figure is the total length of all sides of the figure... 'outer boundaries'... in a circle this is called the circumference.
e.g.
Square : side x 4
Rectangle: (Length X 2) + (Width X 2)
Parallelogram: 2b + 2c ... where b & c are the lengths of one of the opposite sides.
Trapezoid: a + b + c + d ... sum of all four sides
Triangle: a + b + c ... sum of all three sides
Circle: 2 x pi x r
*** So you would 'measure the outline'. This comes in handy with irregularly-shaped perimeters.
What else can I help you with?
What is distance around the figure is called?
If the figure is 2-dimensional, it is called the perimeter.
How do you figure the perimeter and area of a figure that has uneven sides?
Add all sides together to get the perimeter.
How do you figure out if the area or perimeter needs to be squared?
the perimeter of a figure is never squared, but the area of a figure is always squared. Hope this helped :)
What is the shape for a figure to have a perimeter of 20 and an area of 18?
Perimeter and area are not sufficient to determine the shape of a figure.
The distance around a figure is called the what?
The perimeter is the distance around a figureIt is normally its perimeter
What is the distance around closed figure?
The distance round a closed figure is the perimeter.
The distance around a figure is called the?
perimeter.
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 figure the perimeter and area of a figure that has uneven sides?
Add all sides together to get the perimeter.
What is the relationship between the perimeter of a figure and the perimeter of a figure when the length and width are doubled?
x2=y
What best describes the perimeter of a two dimensional figure?
What I think is that the perimeter is the distance around a figure. :)

How do you figure out the perimeter of a closed figure?
Add together the length of its sides. The accumulated lengths of its sides is the perimeter.

What does perimeter of figures mean?
The perimeter of a figure is the sum of its lengths around it.
