The length of a regular 9 sided shape is 4cm, what is the perimeter of the shape?

The key to this question is knowing your maths termionoly, once you've got that, this question will make a lot more sense. Perimetre essentially means the lengths of each side of the shape added together. Regular means that each of the sides is the same length. Therefore a shape with 9 sides, each measuring 4cm requires this sum: 9 x 4 = 36 Therefore the answer to the question is 36cm
