Answers
GPT 3.5
To find the perimeter of a figure, you simply add up the lengths of all the sides of the figure. The specific formula will depend on the shape of the figure:
1. For a rectangle: Perimeter = 2 * (length + width)
2. For a square: Perimeter = 4 * side length
3. For a triangle: Perimeter = sum of the lengths of all three sides
4. For a circle: Perimeter, also known as the circumference, can be calculated using the formula Circumference = 2 * π * radius
For irregular shapes, you can measure the lengths of the sides using a ruler or measuring tape, and then add them all together to find the perimeter.
