Why are the units of perimeter and area different?
Because 'perimeter' is a length, and area is an area. Perimeter is the distance around the edges of a sheet of paper, while area is the part of a table-top that the sheet of paper can cover. You can never say how many square feet tall you are, and you can never say how many feet your front yard covers. That would be swapping the units of length and area, and using each unit for the wrong type of quantity.
Does all sides of a square must be the same length?
Yes, that is part of what makes it a square.
What is the area and perimeter of a parallelogram with a base of 16 a side length of 24 and a height of 13?
A parallelogram can be thought of as a "lopsided rectangle". It's area is given by A = b x h where b is the base and h is the vertical height.So Area = 16 x 13 = 208 square units.Its perimeter does not use the vertical height as this is not part of the shape.So Perimeter = 16 + 24 + 16 + 24 = 80 units.
What is the formula of the perimeter in the quarter of the circle?
Suppose the radius of the circle is r units. Then perimeter of a whole circle = 2*pi*r. So perimeter of curved part (arc) of a quarter circle = 2*pi*r / 4 = pi*r/2 Also, the quadrant has a radius on either end of the curved part. Their combined length is 2*r So the total perimeter = 2r + pi*r/2 = r(2 + pi/4)

How do you turn square feet into a perimeter?
A perimeter is a length. It cannot be expressed in terms of area.
What part of a square is the perimeter?
The outside.or the 4 sides of the squareMore specifically,All of the edges of the square added together make up the perimeter. Imagine yourself walking all around the edges of a square, the distance you travel is the perimeter..For a square or rhombus (but no other quadrilateral) the perimeter is equal to four times the length of one edge. So if your square is 2cm long on one edge, the perimeter is 4x2cm = 8cm.

What part of a desk could measure using a linear unit?
The length, width, height, thickness, diagonal, perimeter, are some characteristics.
What part of speech is perimeter?
Perimeter is a noun.
How do you find the perimeter of an irregular figure?
You add the lengths of all the sides. If one "side" is a part of a circle, find the length of it and add it to the other sides.

What is the number of units that fit along one edge of something called?
The number of units that fit along the edge of something could be the length, width, or height of an object, the length of one part of the perimeter, the circumference of a curve, or the length of the circumference of a closed circle or oval.
What is the number to the left of a decimal point called?
The number to the left of a decimal point is the integer part or the whole-number part. The part of a decimal to the right of the decimal point is the fractional part. The decimal point is called the decimal separator.
