I hope this helps!

Square perimeter formula: P = 4a

Rectangle perimeter formula: P = 2(a + b)

Triangle perimeter formulas:

P = a + b + c or

P = a + b + √(a² + b² - 2ab * cos(γ)) or

P = a + (a / sin(β + γ)) * (sin(β) + sin(γ))

Circle perimeter formula: P = 2πr

Circle sector perimeter formula: P = r(α + 2) (α is in radians)

Ellipse perimeter formula: P = π(3(a + b) - √((3a + b) * (a + 3b)))

Quadrilateral / Trapezoid perimeter formula: P = a + b + c + d

Parallelogram perimeter formulas:

P = 2(a + b) or

P = 2a² + √(2e² + 2f² - 4a²) or

P = 2(b + h/sin(α))

Rhombus perimeter formulas:

P = 4a or

P = 2√(e² + f²)

Kite perimeter formula: P = 2(a + b)

Annulus perimeter formula: P = 2π(R + r)

Regular polygon area formula: P = n * a
