The perimeter of a polygon is the sum of all the measures of its sides.
The perimeter of a n sided polygon is ((2sqrtAsqrttan(pi/n))/sqrtn)n.
If the radius is known it is 2nRsin(180/n).

Does a polygon with a greater area always have a greater perimeter?
No it depends on the size of the polygon
One pair of corresponding sides of two similar polygons measures 12 and 15 The perimeter of the smaller polygon is 30 Find the perimeter of the larger?
The perimeter of the larger polygon will have the same ratio to the perimeter of the smaller as the ratio of the corresponding sides. Therefore, the larger polygon will have a perimeter of 30(15/12) = 37.5, or 38 to the justified number of significant digits stated.
What is the perimeter of a square tile with sides 12 inches long?
To find the perimeter of any polygon just add the length of everyside. In this case you have 4 sides with a length of 12 in. so 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 = perimeter. or to simplify 4 * 12 = perimeter.
When is area bigger than perimeter?
It depends on the shape. Different conditions will apply for a circle, a polygon with n sides.
If a perimeter of Regular polygon has a perimeter of 35 units what is the length of each side?
Oh, isn't that a happy little question! If the perimeter of a regular polygon is 35 units, we can find the length of each side by dividing the perimeter by the number of sides. So, if it's a polygon with 5 sides, each side would be 35 divided by 5, which equals 7 units. Just imagine those sides, all equal and perfectly balanced, creating a lovely shape on your canvas.
