To find the perimeter of a figure, add all the lengths of the edges of the figure. The sum of the sides is the perimeter.
You break it up into smaller shapes which are less irregular. If these are more regular, you can calculate their contribution to the perimeter, and their area. You can then add these together.
It means you have found the distance around that figure.
To find the perimeter of two-dimensional shapes, add the lengths of all the sides together. The sum is the perimeter of the figure.
The distance round a closed figure is the perimeter.
Divide the irregular figure into manageable pieces and work out their individual areas, sum the areas to that of the original figure. Measure the perimeter.

To find the perimeter of a figure, add all the lengths of the edges of the figure. The sum of the sides is the perimeter.
You break it up into smaller shapes which are less irregular. If these are more regular, you can calculate their contribution to the perimeter, and their area. You can then add these together.
The perimeter of the irregular shape is equal to the sum of the six segment around the outside of the figure. 1. Select the endpoints of the segment to be measured. 2. Measure distance. 3. Use the measure calculate feature of Geometer's Sketchpad to add the distance.
Just add up the lengths of all the sides...
You find perimeter by adding all the sides of a figure.
Find the distance of each side and add to find the total perimeter.
Add all the sides of the irregular figure to the obtain the perieter. In the this particular case the permeter will be 2+3+4+9 =18 cms.
The distance around a figure is called a perimeter. The formula to find a perimeter is: width x2 + length x2 = area
It means you have found the distance around that figure.
