📏 Perimeter and Area
This quiz focuses on finding the perimeter and area of 2D shapes by counting unit lengths and square units. You will measure perimeters, calculate areas, compare shapes with equal areas or perimeters, and apply formulas for rectangles. **What you'll learn:** - Find perimeter by counting unit lengths around the outside of shapes - Find area by counting square units inside shapes - Use formulas for rectangles: Perimeter = 2 × (length + width) and Area = length × width - Recognize that shapes with different forms can have the same perimeter or area - Compare and contrast perimeter and area
