3. Let us start with a PERIMETER…
Sir
wait….!
?????
OMG…. Ano

man?
4. PERIMETER
- refers to the
distance around
a polygon, it is
the sum of the
lengths of its
side.
How can we find the PERIMETER
of a polygon?
5. Jonnel Palanog plans to put a ribbon at
the edge of his bed sheet. The length of
the bed sheet is 4 meters and a width of
2 meters. How many meters of ribbon
does he needs?
6. Illustration
4 m

ww 2 m
The total length of ribbon that Jonnel needs can
be determined by adding the measures of the
sides of the polygon (rectangle).
7. Perimeter (P) = 4m + 2m + 4m + 2m = 12m
Jonnel needs 12 meters to put the intire edge of
his bed sheet.
If l represents the length and w represents the width of
a rectangle, then
P = l + w + l + w
= l + l +w + w
P = 2l + 2w

8. Example
Find for the perimeter of a rectangular
glass table: l = 4m, w = 2m
P = 2l + 2w
= 2(4m) + 2(2m)
= 8m + 4m
P = 12m
9. Trapezoid
P = 2 cm + 3 cm
+ 2 cm + 5 cm
P = 12 cm P = a + b + c + d

If a, b, c, d represent the
length of the sides of
the trapezoid, then

10. Example
Find for the perimeter of a regular
pentagonal table whose side is 7m
Regular pentagon has 5 congruent sides.
P = s + s + s + s + s
P = 5s
= 5 (7m)
P = 35m
14. Illustration
Corniel’s bicycle has wheel with
diameter of 60 centimeters. By
how many meters has the
bicycle moved when the wheels
made one revolution?
15. 60 cm
dC
C = 60cm π
C = 60cm (3.14)
C =188.4 cm
C =1.884 meters
Here’s how…

exact natural sciences a certain
measure of security
which, without mathematics, they
could not attain.”
