Question

Compare the perimeters of the following
figures:
Square of side 4 cm
Regular hexagon of side 3 cm
Equilateral triangle of side 5 cm
Rectangle of sides 4 cm and 2 cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P of square = S*4

P = 4cm * 4

P = 16 cm

P of regular hexagon = S*6

P = 3cm * 6

P = 18 cm

P of equilateral triangle = S*3

P = 5cm * 3

P = 15 cm

P of rectangle = 2*(L + B)

P = 2*(4cm + 2cm)

P = 2*6cm

P = 12 cm

Therefore, the regular hexagon has the highest perimeter, second is the square, third is the equilateral triangle and last is the rectangle.

Hope this helps you.
