perimeter is length around the shape.

for a triangle , perimeter = side1 + side2 + side3
= 3 + 5 + 5
= 13

Answer 3

thanks ^^

Answer 4

perimeter = side1 + side2 + side3 = 3 + 5 + 5 = 13

Answer 5

@Faye281 here the question has some ambiguity.

1) it doesnt say if the SUM of two legs is 5.
or
2) each leg is 5

if it is 2nd one. then the perimeter is simply : 3 + 5 = 7
