The perimeter is also twice as large.
Imagine an n-sided polygon with a side length of x, then perimeter = nx. If sides are reduced to x/2 the perimeter becomes nx/2, ie it is halved.
Perimeter is 24cm
Add all sides together to get the perimeter.
The sum of the lengths of the sides of a polygon is called the perimeter.
The perimeter is also twice as large.
The perimeter also doubles, since it is the sum of the side lengths
If a square's perimeter is 16.4 - it's sides are 4.1
The perimeter of a regular hexagon is: length times the # of sides, which in this case happens to be six. The perimeter of a regular hexagon= l(6)
As you double the length of all sides, the perimeter doubles.The area grows by (2 x 2) = 4 times.
A perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all of the sides to a shape. Therefore, there is no actual number of sides a perimeter can have. A shape has sides. Its perimeter is just a number. If rectangle, then 4 sides. If pentagon, then 5 sides. If hexagon, then 6 sides. If triangle, then 3 sides. If octagon, then 8 sides.
Add the lengths of the 3 sides to get the perimeter.
The perimeter of a square with sides of 3.5cm is:3.5cm x 4 = 14 cm perimeter
Imagine an n-sided polygon with a side length of x, then perimeter = nx. If sides are reduced to x/2 the perimeter becomes nx/2, ie it is halved.
Perimeter is 5.
Perimeter is 24cm
Perimeter = 6*6 = 36 cm
