Robotics lesson 22: Loops and shapes · Set 3 · 40 questions

Robot tip (Repeat the side): repeat n { forward s; turn right A° } drives n sides: distance = n × s. A closed regular shape needs n × A = 360°, so A = 360 ÷ n. Rectangle: repeat 2 { forward a; turn 90°; forward b; turn 90° } → perimeter 2 × (a + b), area a × b.
