Does a shape with a smaller perimeter always have a smaller area?

No, the size of the perimeter and the area of a shape are not always directly related. For example, a circle with a small perimeter can have a larger area compared to a square with a larger perimeter. The area of a shape is determined by the size of its dimensions, whereas the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of its sides.

Bigger than what ? Smaller than what ? If you have a certain perimeter and you want to cram the most area inside it, or if you have a certain area and you want to enclose it in the shortest perimeter, then you must make the perimeter circular. If you have only a limited number of fence posts and a circular perimeter isn't practical, then you make the perimeter square.
