Area and Perimeter

People use information gained by figuring out area or perimeter in many different ways.  Sometimes a person may need to know the area of a room in order to buy carpet, or the area of
roof to buy shingles.

People may want to know the perimeter of a field in order to put up a fence, or may need to know the perimeter of their living room in order to buy enough cable to connect their computer to the outlet for internet service.
