That should not surprise you. Here's a thought that might make you more comfortable with it:
-- Take a good sized piece of string.
Tie the ends together.
-- Now you have a big limp loop.
Drop it down on the ground.
-- How many different shapes can you make out of it ? A square ? A circle ?
Different short fat rectangles ? Triangles ? Different long skinny rectangles ?
Odd-ball shapes with 9 sides or 17 sides ? Shapes with some straight sides
and some curved sides ?
You can push the string loop around into millions of different shapes. The string loop
is the perimeter of every one of them.
