Find the Perimeter of Squares & Rectangles #1

Practice perimeter problem solving with this third-grade worksheet! In each of five problems, learners will use the given measurements to figure out the perimeter of the square or rectangle. As a challenge, the last two problems have missing side lengths, so students must use what they know about squares and rectangles to solve for the perimeter.

Finding perimeter measurements is a foundational geometry skill that will help students better understand the properties of two-dimensional shapes. Solving for perimeter measurements of squares and rectangles can familiarize students with the concept so they are better equipped to solve for different shapes, understand perimeter word problems, and apply it to real-life situations.
