Calculating the Perimeter of a Basketball Court

Very Easy Measurement Perimeter And Area

Jason is drawing a rectangular basketball court for a community project. The length of the court is 10 meters, and the width is 6 meters. If he wants to calculate the distance around the entire court, which is known as the perimeter, how would he find that?

To find the perimeter of a rectangle, you can use the formula: $$P = 2(L + W)$$, where $L$ is the length and $W$ is the width.

$$P = 2(10 + 6) = 32$$ meters

$$P = 10 + 6 = 16$$ meters

$$P = 2(10 + 6) = 20$$ meters

$$P = 10 imes 6 = 60$$ square meters
