Math Homework - Same area, different perimeter

Last week we learned that a shape with the same perimeter can have a different area.  Well, today we learned just the opposite.  Today we learned that different shapes can have the same area, but have different perimeters.  A few examples will be posted on the homework today, so take a look and good luck!
Below you will find today's homework and grid paper to complete your homework on.  If you do not have a printer, drawing the shapes on lined paper is fine.  Just make sure to include all measurements of each shape.
