One thing that area and perimeter has in common is that they both measures some part of a shape
Some of the jobs that use area and perimeter include surveying, drafting and construction.
Area and perimeter can be used for measuring things such as lawns (for lawn care) or an area of ground for cement (to order the cement)
Area: Find some of the lengths, then cut the L in half and work it out from there. Perimeter: Add all the lengths together.
Some do: a square 2 units on a side, for example, has area 4 units, perimeter 8.
