How to find perimeters

 This is a basic tutorial on how to find the perimeter and areas of polygons, and circles.

With the help of this instructable you will be able to find the perimeter of a pentagon, square, or any other polygon. You will also learn how to find the circumference of a circle.

Step 1 Squares.

Squares are very simple.  The formula for square is

Perimeter = s+s+s+s or Perimeter =  s.4
                                                               
s = Side

Now go to picture two.
Each side is 8 inches so now multiply 8 times the 4 sides.
8X4=32
So your perimeter is 32 inches.
