Perimeter is the total length of the boundary of a shape. To calculate the perimeter of a polygon you add up the lengths of all its sides. The perimeter formula varies based on the shape for example for a rectangle it’s Perimeter = 2 × (Length + Width).
Class 6 Maths Perimeter and Area Chapter 6 teaches students how to calculate the perimeter and area of different shapes like squares rectangles triangles and circles. The perimeter is found by adding the lengths of the sides while the area is calculated by multiplying length and width or using specific formulas. This chapter prepares students for the CBSE Exam 2024-25.
