Area/Perimeter
Area is finding the inside of a shape. You solve area by multiplying the length times width. If there is a rectangle that is 4 ft. tall and 6 ft. wide the area is 4 x 6 = 24 sq.ft.2
Perimeter is finding the out side of the shape. You solve perimeter by adding the sides up. If there is a rectangle that is 4 ft. tall and 6 ft. wide and you need the perimeter you do 4 + 6 + 4 + 6 = 20 ft.
