Let's consider a 2 inch by 2 inch square.
The area is 2x2=4 square inches.
The perimeter is 2+2+2+2=8 inches.

Whatever the ratio of perimeters of the similar figures, the areas will be in the ratios squared. Examples: * if the figures have perimeters in a ratio of 1:2, their areas will have a ratio of 1²:2² = 1:4. * If the figures have perimeters in a ratio of 2:3, their areas will have a ratio of 2²:3² = 4:9.
P= Add all sides A= LxW
No, in general that is not true. For two similar figures it is true. But you can easily design two different figures that have the same perimeters and different areas, or the same area and different perimeters. For example, two rectangles with a different length-to-width ratio.
The ratio is 16 to 81.
is it 3:5 and 3:5
