Example Question #1 : Triangles
The perimeter of a triangle is 14 inches. One side is 4 inches long. Another side is 5 inches long. How long is the 3rd side?
Add up all of the sides of a triangle to get the perimeter. Here, 2 of the sides add up to give you 9 inches. The third side must equal the difference between 14 inches and 9 inches.
Example Question #2 : Triangles
Bill found the perimeter of the triangle below to be 34 units.
What is the length of the missing side?
15 units
13 units
12 units
14 units
20 units
14 units
The perimeter of a triangle can be found by adding up all of the sides.
Start by adding the two sides that are given: 8 + 12 = 20
The third side can be found by subtracting this sum from the total perimeter: 34 - 20 = 14. The missing side is 14 units long.
Example Question #3 : Triangles
Zoe drew the below triangle.
What is the perimeter of the triangle?
40 inches
39 inches
36 inches
30 inches
20 inches
39 inches
The perimeter of a triangle can be found by adding all of the side lengths: 8 + 12 + 19 = P. Therefore, the perimeter of the given triangle is 39 inches.
