Find the perimeter of an equilateral triangle with a side measure of 14
Do you know what perimeter means ?
Do you know equilateral is latin for equal sides
once you know what equilateral triangle is, you will be easily able to solve the problem.
I didn't know the latin behind it :)
So what fourmula do i need
You don't need a formula. You need to know what perimeter means. Do you know what perimeter means ?
no
Perimeter= Sum of all sides of the shape. in EQUILATERAL triangle (each angle is 60º) and all sides are equal, if one of the sides is 14 and it has 3 sides then what is the PERIMETER ?
see http://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/perimeter.html perimeter is the distance around the triangle. the sum of its sides
14*4 would that give me my answer or would i +
a triangle only has 3 sides
oh 3 typo
you could also do 14+14+14 (which gives the same answer as 3*14)
