The unit of measurement remains the same whether the shape is regular or irregular. But it does depend on the magnitude of the object whose perimeter is being measured. It could range from light years for galaxies, to kilometres for a town, to metres for a house to Angstrom units for atomic structures.

What is the difference between the perimeter of and the area of?
The perimeter is a measurement of the distance around the outline of a shape. The area is the measurement of all the space within the shape, and it is measured as (unit) 2
What is the measurement of each side if the perimeter is 78?
In a 78 sided polygon, 1 unit each.
Why is the perimeter of regular nonagon with a side s unit long 40?
A regular nonagon has 9 sides and so its perimeter is 9*40 = 36 units of measurement
Is 56cm a perimeter or area?
It must be a perimeter. An area measurement would a square measurement like 56cm². ■
What is the Difference between a kilometer and perimeter?
A kilometre is a metric unit for measuring distance. A perimeter is the length of the boundary of a plane figure, which can be measured in inches, miles, kilometres or any other unit for measuring distance.
What is the unit of measurement in a rhombus?

Why is perimeter measured in linear units?
Perimeter is measured in Linear Units because it is Measurement of The Outline or Path of a given shape or area; a Perimeter is NOT the Measurement of What is Inside that Outline/Path. It is a One-Dimensional measurement, which MEANS it is a Linear Unit Measurement, such as Feet or Meters.Alternatively, a Two-Dimensional Measurement, is the Square of a Linear Unit -- like AREA is a Two-Dimensional Measurement and therefore Measured in Linear Units Squared (i.e. meters2/Square Meters or feet2/Square Feet). Area is the Measurement of What is Contained within a given Perimeter.
What is the measurement of each side if the perimeter is 78?
In a 78 sided polygon, 1 unit each.
What unit of measurement would you use to measure a provincial park?
The answer will depend on whether you want its perimeter or its area.
How much i a perimeter?
The perimeter is defined as the distance around something.
What is the difference between the units for linear measurement and units for measuring perimeter?
A linear unit is a one-dimensionn line; a square unit is area. A linear unit is a distance measurment like 1 inch, 2 miles, or 3 kilometers. A square unit is expressed in square, like 2 square feet.
Why is the perimeter of regular nonagon with a side s unit long 40?
A regular nonagon has 9 sides and so its perimeter is 9*40 = 36 units of measurement

What is the Perimeter formula irregular hexagon?
Perimeter = sum of the lengths of the sides.
What is the Difference between a kilometer and perimeter?
A kilometre is a metric unit for measuring distance. A perimeter is the length of the boundary of a plane figure, which can be measured in inches, miles, kilometres or any other unit for measuring distance.
