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.

1a

.

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
