What shape has a bigger area and a smaller perimeter?
Bigger than what ? Smaller than what ? If you have a certain perimeter and you want to cram the most area inside it, or if you have a certain area and you want to enclose it in the shortest perimeter, then you must make the perimeter circular. If you have only a limited number of fence posts and a circular perimeter isn't practical, then you make the perimeter square.
Which is bigger the area or the perimeter of a polygon?
You cannot really compare whether the area or perimeter is bigger, since they have different units. If you want to compare which one is numerically bigger, that depends primarily on what units you are using, as well as the magnitude of the lengths.
If same area in a rectangle does that mean same perimeter?
No. For example, a 4x1 rectangle will have an area of 4 and a perimeter of 10. A 2x2 rectangle will have the same area of 4, but a perimeter of 8.
What is perimiter area of floor?
A perimeter is a linear measurement. An area is the product of two linear measurements, such as length and width. I cannot imagine what you mean by "perimeter area."
What does it mean when it says compute both the perimeter and area?
Usually that means figure out the area and perimeter. Remember the perimeter is adding all sides like putting up and fence. And the area is x (multiplying) the 2 sides
What is bigger area perimeter or side length?
area

What does fence mean area or perimeter?
Perimeter.
Can the perimeter be bigger than the area?
yes, the perimeter can be bigger thenthe area. on a rectangle with a length of 2 and a width of 4, the perimeter is 12 while the area is 8. [ADDED} NO, because although such numbers appear to support the idea, you cannot compare a linear measure with an area.
Is the perimeter of a triangle always bigger than the area of a triangle?
no

Can a rectangle have a greater perimeter and also have a greater area?
Of course, a rectangle can have a greater perimeter and a greater area. Simply double all the sides: the perimeter is doubled and the area is quadrupled - both bigger than they were.
Is the perimeter of a polygon less than the area of the polygon?
if your perimeter totals the same as 4 times pi then the maximum area that can be encompassed is equal to the perimeter. This is done by forming a circle. if you change the shape of the circle then the area will become smaller than the perimeter(circumference) if you make the circumference of the circle smaller then you will definitely decrease the area faster than you would the perimeter if you make the perimeter bigger then you will definitely increase the area faster than you would the perimeter.
If same area in a rectangle does that mean same perimeter?

Does circumferenca mean area of a circle?
No, it means the perimeter of the circle.
