12. Perimeter of a Rectangle Reasoning - 3 Always, Sometimes, Never? When all the sides of a rectangle are odd numbers, the perimeter is even. Prove it. 12 4 Length & Perimeter masterthecurriculum.co.uk

13. Perimeter of a Rectangle Reasoning - 3 Always, Sometimes, Never? When all the sides of a rectangle are odd numbers, the perimeter is even. Prove it. Always because when adding an odd and an odd they always equal an even number. 13 4 Length & Perimeter masterthecurriculum.co.uk

14. Perimeter of a Rectangle Reasoning - 4 Here is a square. Each of the sides is a whole number of metres. Which of these lengths could be the perimeter of the shape? 16cm, 39cm, 24cm, 55cm, 44cm, 70cm, 64 cm Why could the other values not be the perimeter? 14 4 Length & Perimeter masterthecurriculum.co.uk

15. Perimeter of a Rectangle Reasoning - 4 Here is a square. Each of the sides is a whole number of metres. 16 cm Sides = 4 cm 24 cm Sides = 6 cm 44 cm Sides = 11 cm 64 cm Sides = 16 cm The rest are not divisible by 4. 15 4 Length & Perimeter masterthecurriculum.co.uk

16. Perimeter of a Rectangle Discussion What do you need to know to work out the perimeter? How do you know the value of each side? What is this shape? (square) If you only have the length of one side, how can you calculate the perimeter? What way is more efficient for calculating the perimeter? 16 4 Length & Perimeter masterthecurriculum.co.uk
