    sector, which is the portion
    Area: mm2 , cm2 , m2 , ha, km2 of the circle subtended by the

    SURFACE AREA
    The perimeter of a figure is the measurement of the distance
    around its boundary. Solids with plane faces
    For a polygon the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all
    The surface area of a three dimensional figure with plane faces
    sides.
