Can be any shape It is the edge of something So perimeter of a property can be round or square or irregular
If the shape is labeled on each side just add them together, but if it is not, measure the sides then add them together.
It could be any irregular shape whose sides add up to 36cm as for example a scalene triangle
by subtracting
Find the length and width of the shape
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.

Canada has the longest perimeter of any country in the world, due to its vast size and irregular shape.
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.
Find the length and width of the shape
To find the distance around the shape
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.
The areaof a shape is not sufficient information to determine its shape: 18000 acres could be circular, triangular, or simply an irregular shape. It could be a very long very thin rectangle, with a perimeter that is infinitely large.The only thing that can be said with certainty is that the perimeter must be at least 18.8 miles.The areaof a shape is not sufficient information to determine its shape: 18000 acres could be circular, triangular, or simply an irregular shape.

You find perimeter by adding all the sides of a figure.
