This topic focuses on recognizing formulas for calculating the perimeters of simple shapes and matching these formulas to their corresponding shapes. Learners engage with problems where they must identify the appropriate shape (such as triangle, square, or rectangle) based on the given perimeter formula. These problems are part of an advanced unit on perimeters, designed to enhance understanding of how perimeter formulas are derived and applied.
