Additional Example 2: Using a Formula to Find Perimeter
Find the perimeter P of the rectangle.
P = 2l+ 2w
Substitute 12 for l and 3 for w.P = (2 • 12) + (2 • 3)
P = 24 + 6
P = 30
Multiply.
Add.
The perimeter is 30 cm.

Try This: Example 2
Find the perimeter P of the rectangle.
P = 2l + 2w
Substitute 15 for l and 2 for w.P = (2 • 15) + (2 • 2)
P = 30 + 4
P = 34
Multiply.
Add.
The perimeter is 34 cm.

10-1 Finding Perimeter
A. What is the length of side a if the perimeter equals 1,471 mm?
P = sum of side lengths
Use the values you know.1,471 = 416 + 272 + 201 + 289 + a
1,471 = 1,178 + a
1,471 – 1,178 = 1,178 + a – 1,178
Add the known lengths.
Subtract 1,178 from both sides.293 = a
Side a is 293 mm long.
Additional Example 3A: Finding Unknown Side Lengths and the Perimeter of a Polygon
Find each unknown measure.

Additional Example 3B: Finding Unknown Side Lengths and the Perimeter of a Polygon
Find each unknown measure.
B. What is the perimeter of the polygon?
First find the unknown side length.
Find the sides opposite side b.
The length of side b = 50 + 22.
Side b is 72 cm long.
P = 72 + 55 + 50 + 33 + 22 + 22
P = 254
Find the perimeter.
The perimeter of the polygon is 254 cm.

72 cm
l = 4w Find the length.
l = (4 • 19)
l = 76
Substitute 19 for w.
Multiply.
Additional Example 3C: Finding Unknown Side Lengths and the Perimeter of a Polygon
C. The width of a rectangle is 19 cm. What is the perimeter of the rectangle if the length is 4 times the width?
4w
19 cm
Course 1
10-1 Finding Perimeter
Additional Example 3C Continued
P = 2l + 2w
Substitute 76 and 19.P = 2(76) + 2 (19)
P = 152 + 38
P = 190
Multiply.
Add.
Use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle.
The perimeter of the rectangle is 190 cm.
4w
19 cm

10-1 Finding Perimeter
Try This: Example 3A
Find each unknown measure.
A. What is the length of side a if the perimeter equals 1,302 mm?
P = sum of side lengths
Use the values you know.1,302 = 212 + 280 + 250 + 240 + a
1,302 = 982 + a
1,302 – 982 = 982 + a – 982
Add the known lengths.
Subtract 982 from both sides.320 = a
Side a is 320 mm long.
212 mm 280 mm
a250 mm
240 mm

First find the unknown side length.Find the sides opposite side b.
The length of side b = 12 + 4.
Side b is 16 m long.
P = 14 + 12 + 8 + 4 + 6 + 16
P = 60
Find the perimeter.
The perimeter of the polygon is 60 m.
