How do you get the perimeter of a given area?

The perimeter of an area is the length around the outside. For simple shapes such as a square or a circle, the answer is not difficult to calculate. For a square, (length x breadth) = the area. For a circle, pi times the diameter, or roughly, 22/7 x the diameter = the area. For a geographic area, such as say the perimeter of Florida, this is easiest to determine by actually measuring around Florida's border on a map with a small rolling wheel, that converts the distance it travelled into length.
