geometry

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

The base is 2cm by 4 cm. The perimeter is length * width * 2. That should get you off to a good start.

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

No, that'll give you the area of the base. What wolf wrote above gives you the perimeter.

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Whoops - I should have said perim = length PLUS widht * 2

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Perimeter = (l + w)*2

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Not l + w*2 lol

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

No (l+w) * 2

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Noooo, you're doing too much now. It's asking for the perimeter of the base, or the bottom of the shape.

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

you don't need the height (5 cm) measurement.

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

The perimeter is 2 + 4 + 2 + 4 That should help.

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

(2+4)*2!!!!!!
