Very little. The only two things that they have in common are that they are normally associated with two dimensional figures and that their measures depend on the measures of the sides (or other dimensions, such as radii) of the shape in question.
An area is a two dimensional characteristics of the shape, a perimeter is 1 dimensional; there is very little association between area and perimeter - you can have very tiny areas with huge perimeters eg a 0.00001m * 1000m rectangle would have an area smaller than an A4 sheet of paper, but would have a perimeter of just over 2 kilometres.

How do you convert perimeter into square meters?
There is no standard relationship between perimeter and area. For example, you can have two rectangles that have the same perimeter, but different area.
What is the difference between perimeter area and volume?
perimeter is all the sides added, area is the base times the height, and volume is on a prism u multiply the three different measurements
What is the area and the perimeter of 11Cm by 4Cm?
Area : 44cm² Perimeter : 30cm
In which jobs we use perimeter and area?
In which jobs we use perimeter and area?
How can the perimeter stay the same and the area change?
4x4 square: perimeter - 16 area - 16 6x2 rectangle perimeter - 16 area - 12
What is the relation between perimeter and triangle area?
If you double (2 times) the perimeter the area will will be 4 times larger. Therefore the area is proportional to the square of the perimeter or the perimeter is proportional to the square root of area. The relationship as shown above applies only to triangles with similar proportions, that is when you scale up or down any triangle of fixed proportions. Other than that requirement, there is no relationship between perimeter and area of any shape of triangle except that it can be stated that the area will be maximum when the sides are of equal length (sides = 1/3 of perimeter).
What kind of manipulative can use to teach the relationship between area and perimeter?
In general, there is no relationship between area and perimeter.
How do you convert the perimeter of a trapezoid to area?
You cannot. There is no direct relationship between perimeter and area.
What is the diffrence between area and perimeter?
The area is the space it covers. The perimeter is the length of its sides.
How are perimeter and area similar?
they are similar because you can use them both in any shape that is a polygon

What is the relationship between the perimeter and area when area is fixed?
For a fixed area, the perimeter is minimum for a circle, but has no maximum. Fractal figures (such as Koch snowflake) may have a finite area within an infinite perimeter.
What does the scale factor between two similar figures tell you about the perimeter?
The perimeter will scale by the same factor.
What is the different between the perimeter and the area of a polygon?
Area you multiply 2 sides and perimeter you add all the sides together.
What is the relationship for perimeter and area for rectangle?
There is no relationship between the perimeter and area of a rectangle. Knowing the perimeter, it's not possible to find the area. If you pick a number for the perimeter, there are an infinite number of rectangles with different areas that all have that perimeter. Knowing the area, it's not possible to find the perimeter. If you pick a number for the area, there are an infinite number of rectangles with different perimeters that all have that area.
How are the perimeter and area of a shape related?
It really depends on the shape. Different shapes have different relationships between perimeter and area. For similar shapes, the perimeter will increase linearly with the diameter, length, or any other linear measure, while the area will increase with the square of any linear measure. For example, if one square has ten times the side-length of another, its perimeter will also be ten times longer; but its area will be 100 times larger.
what is the similarities between area and perimeter?
