Area and Perimeter

How to Find Area and Perimeter

This outer space-themed video teaches the concepts of area and perimeter. You'll learn how to calculate the area of rectangles by counting unit squares and the perimeter by adding side lengths, and then by using the formulas length x width and (2 x length) + (2 x width).
