To find the distance around a figure, you calculate the perimeter. The perimeter is the total distance around the outside of a shape or figure. To find the perimeter of a rectangle or square, you add up all the sides. For a circle, you can find the perimeter by multiplying the diameter by π (pi).

The distance around a figure is called a perimeter. The formula to find a perimeter is: width x2 + length x2 = area
