Perimeters of Triangles and Quadrilaterals

The Perimeters of Triangles and Quadrilaterals

Find the perimeters of triangles and quadrilaterals

Perimeter – is defined as the total length of a closed shape. It is obtained by adding the lengths of the sides inclosing the shape. Perimeter can be measured in , , ,, e. t. c

Examples

Example 1

Find the perimeters of the following shapes

Solution

  1. Perimeter = 7 + 7 + 3 + 3 = 20
  2. Perimeter = 2 + 4 + 5 = 11
  3. Perimeter = 3 + 6 + 4 + 5 + 5 + 4 = 27

Circumference of a Circle

The Value of Pi ( Π)

Estimate the value of Pi ( Π)

The number π is a mathematical constant, the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter, commonly approximated as 3.14159. It has been represented by the Greek letter “π” since the mid 18th century, though it is also sometimes spelled out as “pi” (/paɪ/).

The perimeter of a circle is the length of its circumference . = . Experiments show that the ratio of the circumference to the diameter is the same for all circles
