Let’s find the perimeter.
This is a regular polygon.
What is a regular polygon?
So, if one of this
polygon’s sides
measures 5 cm...
A regular polygon is one in
which all sides are the same
length.
…what would the
perimeter of this
polygon be?
Let’s find the perimeter.

2l + 2w = perimeter of a rectangle
2 x length + 2 x width
2l + 2w =
6 in
2x6+2x2=
12 + 2 x 2 =
12 + 4 =
Find the Perimeter
Use: 2l + 2w = perimeter of a rectangle
10 yds
1 yds
Step 1: Write the formula.
Step 2: Replace the variables.
Step 3: Multiply first.
Step 4: Add last.
Step 5: Write the answer
with the correct units.
2l + 2w =
2 x 10 + 2 x 1 =
20 + 2 =
20 + 2 = 22
22 yds
Find the Perimeter
Use: 2l + 2w = perimeter of a rectangle
9 in

Step 1: Write the formula.
Step 2: Replace the variables.
Step 3: Multiply first.
Step 4: Add last.
Step 5: Write the answer
with the correct units.
2l + 2w =
2x9+2x3=
18 + 6 =
18 + 6 = 24
24 in
Try one with someone at your table.
Use: 2l + 2w = perimeter of a rectangle
4 cm
8 cm
Step 1: Write the formula.
Step 2: Replace the variables.
Step 3: Multiply first.
Step 4: Add last.
Step 5: Write the answer
with the correct units.
2l + 2w =
2x8+2x4=
16 + 8 =
16 + 8 = 24
24 cm
