What is the perimeter of each of the following figures? What do you infer from the answers?
(a) We know that,
Perimeter of square = 4 × Side of square
= 4 × 25 cm
= 100 cm
(b) We know that,
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 × (l + b)
Here, l is 40 cm and b is 10 cm.
= 2 × (40 + 10)
= 2 × (50)
= 100 cm
(c) We know that,
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 × (l + b)
Here, l is 30 cm and b is 20 cm.
= 2 × (30 + 20)
= 2 × (50)
= 100 cm
(d) We know that,
Perimeter of triangle = Sum of all sides
= 30 + 30 + 40
= 100 cm
