The method (Around or inside): Perimeter of a regular shape = number of sides × side. Rectangle: 2 × (length + width). Area of a rectangle = length × width; square = side × side. Cost of fencing = perimeter × rate per metre; cost of painting = area × rate per square metre. Cut-out shape: area of the big rectangle − area of the part cut out.
