Perimeter of a Stadium Formulas & Calculator

The perimeter of a stadium can be calculated using the following formula: if you know the length of the radius and the lateral side length.

Formula Knowing the radius and lateral length

If you know the length of the radius and the lateral side, you can calculate its perimeter using the following formula:

Stadium Perimeter

$$"perimeter" = 2(pir + a)$$

Radius Length

Perimeter result


Where:

$$pi = "constant number"$$
$$r = "circle radius"$$
$$a = "lateral side length"$$

Perimeter Definition

A perimeter is defined by the outer path of a shape. The shape is always in 2 dimensions. The perimeter is the total length of the exterior path. Another way of looking at this is to think of it as the boundary length of a shape.

In the case of a circle, the perimeter is called a circumference.

Perimeter has a Greek origin, "peri" means "around", and "meter" means "measure". So perimeter means "measure around".

Formula Definition

It is a representation of a rule or a general principle using letters. (Algebra, A. Baldor)
When describing formulas in plural, it is also valid to say "formulae".
