  4. Measure Each Side

  5. Add Sides Together

  6. Perimeter This box has a perimeter of 24.

  7. What About Other Objects? • How can we find the perimeter of objects other than squares and rectangles?

  8. Other Objects • Just add up the sides of the object. • This is the same as squares and rectangles. • What is the perimeter of this object?

  9. Perimeter Of Object
