To find the perimeter of a rectangle , you can use this simple formula:
Perimeter of a Rectangle Formula
Perimeter=2×(Length+Width)\text{Perimeter}=2\times (\text{Length}+\text{Width})Perimeter=2×(Length+Width)
Steps:
- Measure the length of the rectangle.
- Measure the width of the rectangle.
- Add the length and the width together.
- Multiply the sum by 2.
Example:
If the length is 8 meters and the width is 5 meters, then:
Perimeter=2×(8+5)=2×13=26 meters\text{Perimeter}=2\times (8+5)=2\times 13=26\text{ meters}Perimeter=2×(8+5)=2×13=26 meters
So, the perimeter is 26 meters. If you want, I can help you calculate the perimeter for any specific rectangle you have!
