- Perimeter[ <Polygon> ]
- Returns the perimeter of the polygon.
- Example:
Perimeter[Polygon[(1, 2), (3, 2), (4, 3)]]yields 6.58.
- Perimeter[ <Conic> ]
- If the given conic is a circle or ellipse, this command returns its perimeter. Otherwise the result is undefined.
- Example:
Perimeter[x^2 + 2y^2 = 1]yields 5.4.
- Note: See also Circumference command.
- Perimeter[ <Locus> ]
- If the given locus is finite, this command returns its approximate perimeter. Otherwise the result is undefined.
