Question

In the items below a physical property is identified along with two objects figures. For each In the item identify whether the property applies to one, both, or neither of the objects figures listed and explain why it does or does not.1) Property: PerimeterrectangleSphere

Answer 1

The perimeter is the distance along the edge of a figure, it is most commonly used for 2-D figures.

Then, it does apply to a rectangle since is a 2-D figure with defined sides.

However, it does not apply to a sphere since it is a 3-D figure with no defined sides, for a sphere we can calculate volume, surface area, radius, diameter, and circumference.
