If we want to know the total distance when walking around this field, what do we use?
Perimeter
Convert this area measurement: 8,000,000 m2 (km 2)
8,000,000/1,000,000 = 8 km2
Convert this area measurement: 0.0051 m2 (cm2)
0.0051 x 10,000 = 51 cm2
What is the perimeter?
4.3 x 8 = 34.4 cm
What is the perimeter?
10 + 10 + 3 + 3 + 6 = 32 cm
The perimeter of a square box is 24 cm. What is the area of the box?

Convert this area measurement: 700 cm2 (m2)
700/10,000 = 0.07 m2
A landscape gardener charges $20 per square metre of lawn. A lawn area is in the shape of a rhombus and its diagonals are 8 m and 14.5 m. What would be the cost of laying this lawn?
[Area = 58m2] [Cost of landscaping = $20m2] therefore, 20 x 58 = $1160.
