Mensuration is the branch of mathematics that deals with the measurement of geometric figures and their properties. It is particularly concerned with the calculation of various geometric quantities, such as area, volume, length, and surface area, related to two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes. 

Here are some formulas for the area and perimeter of different shapes:
Circle: Area =
πr2, Perimeter = 2πr
Triangle: Area = 1⁄2 × b × h, Perimeter = a + b + c
Square: Area = a, Perimeter = 4a
Rectangle: Area = l × w, Perimeter = 2(l + w)
Parallelogram: Area = b × h, Perimeter = 2(a+b)
Trapezoid: Perimeter = a + b + b + c, Area = 1⁄2( b + b ) x h
Ellipse: Perimeter ≈ 2π ( (a + b) / 2 ), Area = πrr
Hexagon: Perimeter = 6r, Area = (3√3/2 )r
Octagon: Perimeter = 8a, Area = ( 2 + 2√2 )a
