The term perimeter is usually used to denote the "distance around" an object. It is usually used in a 2-dimentional sense. The perimeter of a house might be the distance around it. The perimeter of a cube might be expressed as the distance around it, which is 4 times the length of an edge. This is a little different than finding the surface area of the cube, which is discovered by multiplying the square of the length of an edge by 6. Cubeperimeter = 4 x edge Cubesurface area = 6 x (edge2)
