Area and Perimeter

Description

This example demonstrates how to calculate the perimeter of a rectangle. The concept is based on the formula for perimeter: P = 2 ( l + w ), where l is the length and w is the width of the rectangle. By applying this formula, students learn to add the lengths of all sides of the rectangle, reinforcing skills in addition and multiplication. This exercise also enhances understanding of geometric properties and spatial reasoning. The specific skills involved include arithmetic operations and formula application, which are fundamental in solving perimeter-related problems.
