Title: Perimeter of Square |
Grade: 6-a Lesson: S1-L3 |
Explanation: The best way to understand geometry is by looking at some examples. Take turns and read each example for easy understanding. |
Examples:
The perimeter of a square is 76 cm . If you reduce the side length with 4 cm,what will be the new perimeter?
Step 1a
|
|
The given value for the perimeter of a square is 76 cm. |
![]() . |
Explanation: The value provided for the perimeter of a square is 76 cm. |
Step 1b
|
|
Perimeter of a square formula P = 4s We need to determine the length of a side of a square. s = \$p/4\$ |
|
Explanation: The formula for calculating the perimeter of a square: P = 4s. We need to find the length of one side of a given square. s = \$P/4\$. |
Step 1c
|
|
Substitute the values s = \$76/4\$ = 19 So, the original side length of the square is 19 cm. |
|
Explanation: Based on the calculation, the side length of the square is determined to be 19 cm. |
Step 1d
|
|
Now, you want to reduce the side length by 4 cm. The new side length s_new = 19 - 4 = 15 cm |
|
Explanation: After reducing the side length by 4 cm, the new side length s_new is calculated as 15 cm from the original length of 19 cm. |
Step 1e
|
|
Now, you can find the new perimeter (P_new) using the same formula: P_new = 4S_new P_new = \$4 \times 15\$ = 60 cm |
|
Explanation: Now you can find the new perimeter, P_new, using the same formula: P_new = 4S_new. Therefore, P_new = \$4 \times 15\$ = 60 cm. |
Step 1f
|
|
So, if you reduce the side length of the square by 4 cm, the new perimeter will be 60 cm. |
|
Explanation: After reducing the side length of the square by 4 cm, the new perimeter is 60 cm |
