Example Question #51 : Triangles
What is the PERIMETER of the triangle in the figure? 
30 cm
Because the question asks you to find the PERIMETER of the triangle, you are looking to figure out the distance around the outside of the triangle. You find the perimeter of triangles simply by adding the length of the three sides together. So the correct answer here is

Not enough information is given
An equilateral triangle has three equal sides. To find the perimeter of a triangle, you add up all the sides. Your final answer would then be 
Example Question #59 : Triangles
Find the perimeter of an equilateral triangle with side length 1.
To solve, simply use the formula for the perimeter of an equilateral triangle. Thus,
Remember, the special property of an equilateral triangle is that all of its sides are the same length so, you can either add the side length 3 times or multiply it by 3.
