Finding the perimeter of a polygon is finding how far it is in total along all the edges of the polygon; whereas finding the area of a polygon is finding how much space the polygon covers. The perimeter of a polygon forms the boundary around the area of the polygon.
perimeter is the measure around the figure; area is the measure within the figure formula: perimeter: length+length+width+width=perimeter (for square or rectangle) area: length times width= area ( for square or rectangle)
The length of the boundary of a polygon is its perimeter.The space the polygon takes on your sheet is called the area & hence area is enclosed within the perimeter.In other words,area is the quantity that expresses the extent of a 2D surface/shape on a plane.
Area you multiply 2 sides and perimeter you add all the sides together.
If you restrict yourself to integers, the perimeter of a four-sided polygon is 16.

You know because the area is the distance inside a polygon and a perimeter is the distance outside a polygon.
A polygon is a closed plane figure that is bound by at least three straight sides. Perimeter is the total lengths of the sides of a shape. They are different because a polygon refers to the shape, and perimeter refers to the distance around a shape. The perimeter refers to the path traveled around the outside of some area. All polygons have a perimeter. Shapes that are not polygons also have a perimeter -- such as circles, semicircles, and the shapes of most letters.
A polygon has lengths, angles, a perimeter and area.
Area of regular polygon: 0.5*apothem*perimeter
If you restrict yourself to integers, the perimeter of a four-sided polygon is 16.
Perimeter = 2*Area/Apothem.
the perimeter. the space inside is the area
No it depends on the size of the polygon
