Side stems affect plant vigor. As a tomato grows, side shoots, or suckers, form in the crotches, or axils, between the leaves and the main stem. If left alone, these suckers will grow just like the main stem, producing flowers and fruit. Suckers appear sequentially, from the bottom of the plant up.
The perimeter of a two-dimensional shape is the total distance around the shape, or the sum of the length of its sides. By definition, a square is a four-sided shape with four straight sides of equal length, and four right (90Â°) angles.
The calculator can then give you the perimeter or area. Remember that perimeter is the distance around the outside of the figure (like a fence around a yard) and that area is the amount of surface the figure covers (like carpeting in a room.)
