How do you find the distance around a figure?
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).
How do you find area when given perimeter and width?
If you are given the width and the perimeter, then figure out what the length is then calculate the area... hope this helps :)
What shape has a perimeter of 17cm?
Any shape you want. "Perimeter" is not some esoteric function, it is merely the total measurement of the sides of the figure.
Can you find the perimeter with only the area?
No, you also need some details about the specific figure you are working with.
How do find the perimeter of a rectangle?
the perimeter is the sum of the length of every side of the geometrical figure. In your case, since you have 4 sides two of which are equal, the perimeter would be 2*(a+b) where a and b are the length of two sides
