Example Question #362 : Plane Geometry
Use the following triangle to answer the question:
Find the perimeter.
To find the perimeter of a triangle, we will use the following formula:
where a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides of the triangle.
Now, given the triangle
we can see it has sides of length 8cm, 4cm, and 6cm.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #381 : Geometry
Find the perimeter of an equilateral triangle with a base of 5in.
To find the perimeter of a triangle, we will use the following formula:
where a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides of the triangle.
Now, we know the base of the triangle is 5in. Because it is an equilateral triangle, we know that all sides are equal. Therefore, all sides are 5in.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #81 : Triangles
An isosceles triangle measures inches along its two equal sides, and inches along its third side. What is the perimeter of the triangle?
To find the perimeter of any object, simply add the length of each side together. For the triangle above, add the equal side twice (there are two of them). The best answer is:
Example Question #82 : Triangles
An isosceles triangle measures inches along its two equal sides, and inches along its third side. What is the perimeter of the triangle?
To find the perimeter of any object, simply add the length of each side together. The best answer is:
inches
Example Question #43 : How To Find The Perimeter Of A Triangle
An equilateral triangle measures inches along its three equal sides. What is the perimeter of the triangle?
To find the perimeter of any object, simply add the length of each side together. In the case of an equilateral triangle, because all three sides are equal, and there are three of them, you can also multiply the side length by three. The best answer is:
inches
Example Question #382 : Geometry
An equilateral triangle measures inches along its three equal sides. What is the perimeter of the triangle?
To find the perimeter of any object, simply add the length of each side together. In the case of an equilateral triangle, because all three sides are equal, and there are three of them, you can also multiply the side length by three. The best answer is:
inches
Example Question #91 : Triangles
Find the perimeter of an equilateral triangle with a base of 18in.
To find the perimeter of a triangle, we will use the following formula:
where a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides of the triangle.
Now, we know the base of the triangle has a length of 18in. Because it is an equilateral triangle, all lengths are the same. Therefore, all lengths are 18in.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #1321 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Mathematics Achievement
Find the perimeter of an equilateral triangle with a base of 14in.
To find the perimeter of a triangle, we will use the following formula:
where a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides of the triangle.
Now, we know the base of the triangle is 14in. Because it is an equilateral triangle, all sides are equal. Therefore, all sides are 14in.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #51 : How To Find The Perimeter Of A Triangle
Find the perimeter of the following triangle:
To find the perimeter of a triangle, we will use the following formula:
where a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides of the triangle.
Now, given the triangle
we can see it has sides of length 10ft, 6ft, and 12ft. Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #371 : Plane Geometry
Find the length of one side of an equilateral triangle that has a perimeter of 27cm.
The formula to find perimeter of an equilateral triangle is
where a is the length of one side. We can multiply that by 3, because an equilateral triangle has 3 equal sides. Now, to find the length of one side, we will solve for a.
So, we know the perimeter of the equilateral triangle is 27cm. Knowing this, we can substitute. We get
Therefore, the length of one side of the equilateral triangle is 9cm.
