To draw a shape with the same area and perimeter, decide what shape you want to draw, then take the equations for area and perimeter and make them equal, and then solve what the various side lengths have to be.
For instance, the area of a square is L2 where L is the side length, and the perimeter of a square is Lx4
We want them equal, so L2=Lx4
Dividing both sides by L gives us L=4, so if I draw a square with side length 4, it will have the same area and perimeter.

What shapes have the same perimeter but different areas?
Most shapes can have the same area and different perimeters. For example the right size square and circle will have the same are but they will have different perimeters. You can draw an infinite number of triangles with the same area but different perimeters. This is before we think about all the other shapes out there.
Is there a shape with the same perimeter and area?
There is a square that has a length of 4. Area: 4 x 4: 16 Perimeter: 4+4+4+4= 16 Yes, there is a shape with the same perimeter and area.
What shape has the same area but a different perimeter?
a square
Can a shape have the same area but not perimeter?
Most shapes have different perimeter than area, as far as value.
Why can you have a shape with different perimeters but the same area?
they are different because perimeter is the out side of the shape and area is inside of the shape.
