Different polygons have different relationships between perimeter and area. For example, if we assume regular polygons, an equilateral triangle and a square have different perimeters for the same area. If you allow irregular polygons, the variety is even bigger.

How do you find the perimeter of a regular polygon when only the base and area are given?

Can you find a perimeter of a regular polygon if you only know the meaurement of one side?
Only if you know what kind of polygon you have. If you know that you have a hexagon and one side is 1 cm, the perimeter is 6 cm. You only have to know the length of one side, since a regular polygon has equal sides. Perimeter or a regular polygon is the length of each side times the number of sides. You need to know both pieces to find the perimeter. ■
What is the formula for surface area if the only measurement you have is the perimeter?
There can be no such formula in general. A formula will exist if the area is a regular polygon (or a circle).
How do you find the perimeter of a hexagon if the area is given?
In general you cannot find the perimeter of any shape if only the area is given.
What is the area and perimeter of a cylinder?
There is no perimeter of a circle. Only flat shapes have perimeters. You can however, find the circumference, surface area, and volume.

How do you calculate the area of the polygon?
If it is a regular polygon--meaning that all the sides are congruent and all the angles are congruent, then the formula for area of the polygon is A=1/2 ap Here a represents the apothem, which is the distance from the center of the polygon to the midpoint of one side. p represents the perimeter of the polygon found by multiplying one side length by the number of sides. If you only know one variable such as side length, you can find the perimeter and you can find the apothem using trigonomety.

How do you find the perimeter if you only have the area?
Area times pie 3.14
How do you find the area of a parallelogram with only the perimeter?
area is length times width
What is the area and perimeter of a cylinder?
There is no perimeter of a circle. Only flat shapes have perimeters. You can however, find the circumference, surface area, and volume.
How dO you find the perimeter of a square if it only give you the area?
Square root the area and then times the answer by 4
How do you find the area of a yard using the perimeter in square feet?
You can't only using the perimeter. You have to know length and width.
How do you find the length and breadth with only the area and perimeter?
let the length be 'x' and the breadth be 'y' then area = xy and perimeter = 2x+2y Solve the simultaneous linear equations by given area and perimeter. Regards, A Pakistani!
What is the distance around a polygon?
A polygon is a closed shape bounded by only straight lines. The distance around a polygon is called the Perimeter The actual distance of the polygon depends on the shape. See related links below for a website I believe will help you.
