 Ôerimeter
ëÔerimeter is measurement of length of a boundary
which encompasses a closed plane surface. It is the
distance around the outside edge of a figure.

ëIn Mathematics, perimeter is the total length of the

sides enclosing a certain geometrical shape.

10cm Ôerimeter = 10cm + 4cm + 10cm + 4cm

= 28cm
4cm 4cm
 
Ôerimeter = 10cm × 2 + 4cm × 2
10cm
= 20cm + 8cm
= 28cm

 simple concept about area
The rectangular board is
A divided with squares of unit
size each.

We can find the area of any

B part by counting the number
of squares as its unit
measure.

Thus,
C Area of A = 2 square units or 2 unit²
Area of B = 3 square units or 3 unit²
D Area of C = 4 square units or 4 unit²
Area of D = 5 square units or 5 unit²

 ·olume
ëThe real world is actually a three-dimensional
space. All things in this world, whether solid, liquid
or gaseous, exist in three dimensions. As such, the
amount of three-dimensional space which an object
occupies is called its volume.

ëTo calculate the volume of an object or solid, we

have to use a specific unit of measure.
The most suitable shape for the unit of volume is a
unit cube with dimensions 1cm × 1cm × 1cm.
A unit cube is a cube whose edges are of unit length.
The volume of a unit cube with edges 1cm each is
1cm × 1cm × 1cm = 1cm³
This unit cube is the unit of measure usually used for
measuring volume of a solid.
Example:
1cm
If = 1cm³, find the volume of the solid below.

1cm
1cm
Solution:

·olume = 1cm³ × 4
= 4cm³
·olume of cube = length × 3

=—³

—

·olume of cuboid = length × breadth × height

OR

·olume of cuboid = Area of base × height
