Wrap the strip of paper around the plate or can and mark it where it completes a full circle around the object. Then lay the strip on a flat surface and measure the marked length using the ruler. That length is the perimeter (circumference) of the round object.

Do rectangular prisms and round shapes have perimeter?

Not sure how the perimeter of a solid object is defined. It cannot be a path around all the edges since even with a simple polyhedron - a cube - there is no route that does not require retracing or repeating an edge. Is it the sum of the edges' lengths? And would the definition extend to polyhedra in higher dimensions? A round shape - in 2-dimensions - does have a perimeter.

How do you measure a round object by using a meter rule?

Two methods: 1. mark a point on the circumference of the round object; put a mark on the floor; line up the marks and roll the object along the floor until the mark retouches the floor; use the meter rule to find the distance between the marks on the floor. 2. measure the diameter of the round object using the meter rule and multiply it by π (pi ≈ 3.14159)
