Formulas for Perimeter, Area, and Volume
Perimeter of square
add 4 sides together
P = 4s
P = s + s + s + s
Perimeter of rectangle
add 4 sides together
P = L + L + W + W
P = 2L + 2W
Circumference of circle
C = 3.14 x diameter
C = pi times diameter
Area of square
A = S times S
A = S x S
Area of rectangle
A = L times W
A = L x W
Area of circle
Area of circle = 3.14 x radius squared
Area of triangle
A of triangle = 1/2 times base times height
A = 1/2 x bh
Area of parallelogram
A =1/2 times bh
Area of trapezoid
A = 1/2 (base 1 + base 2)h
Volume of rectangular prism
V = lwh
Volume of cube
V = L x W x H
