no add the sides of the area
If you are calculating the area of a rectangle, it is length times width. You are not multiplying all the sides, because there are four sides. You only need to multiply two of them.
to find the perimeter you must add all sides. and to find area you have to multiply lenght and width
20cm daftie!! ^No, 25cm² actually. All you do is multiply 5 by 5.
Multiply the sides
multiply all of the sides than that is your answer
because you do
Area you multiply 2 sides and perimeter you add all the sides together.

definition of a square: all sides are congruent (equal) Therefore, all sides are 2.5 feet. To find area, you multiply length by width....so multiply 2.5x2.5
No. But the exact formula depends on the shape that you are talking about.
to find the perimeter you must add all sides. and to find area you have to multiply lenght and width
Perimeter: add all sides area: multiply length times width for rectangles
for area you multiply length times width and for perimeter you add all of the sides together

you need to multiply the sides.
If you have 25cm and 20cm for example, you just multiply all the sides to get the area! which in this problem its 25x20=500 cm. ~Hannah G.
