Answer:

Feet

Meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the appropriate units for describing the perimeter of a shape

The perimeter is just the addition of the lengths of the sides

The unit of the perimeter is same as the unit of the length of the sides that are added

Now, let us look at the options:

Cubic millimeters is about volume and thus cannot be correct

Square kilometers talk about area and cannot be correct

Square inches also talk about area and thus cannot be correct

Feet is correct as length can be measured in feet

Meters is correct as length can be measured in meters

Cubic centimeters talk about volume and thus cannot be correct
