Perimeter is a one-dimensional measurement that represents the distance around a closed geometric figure or shape. To find the perimeter, add the lengths of each side of the shape. If there are units, include units in your final answer. To compute perimeter, the shapes must be closed. In the given figures, we can find the perimeter by adding all the sides in figure 1 because it is a closed figure, but in figure 2, we cannot find the perimeter as it is an open figure. |
Perimeter: Perimeter is the total length of the boundary of a closed figure.
The perimeter of a simple closed figure is the sum of the measures of line segments that have surrounded the figure.
Illustration: Find the perimeter of triangle ABC, when AB = 10cm, BC = 7cm and AC = 15cm Solution: Perimeter of ∆ABC = length (AB + BC + CA = 10 + 7 + 15 = 32 cm Illustration: Find the perimeter of Quadrilateral DEKN, when DE = 12cm, EK = 7cm, KN = 4cm and ND = 14cm. Solution: Perimeter of the quadrilateral DEKN = length (DE + EK + KN + ND) = (12 + 7 + 4 +14) = 37cm. Illustration: Find the perimeter of a regular hexagon of the side 10cm. Solution: Perimeter of the hexagon PQRSTU = length (PQ + QR + RS + ST + TU + UP) = 6 x 10cm = 60cm |

I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
Abhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
A marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
My experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
Abhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
