Video Tutorial: Perimeter of a Triangle

Perimeter of a triangle Video Tutorial: Perimeter of a Triangle

In this video tutorial learn about perimeter in the context of triangles. Several examples of calculating a perimeter are shown: whole number sides, decimal sides. Then we look at triangles one of whose sides is a variable. The resulting perimeter is an algebraic expression.

Wildlife Refuge

Wildlife Refuge Description

In this module students use their geometry and algebra skills to analyze a wildlife refuge in Nevada. Calculating the area, perimeter, and the ratio of the two allows students to analyze different configurations for a refuge. Specifically, they look at ways of designing a wild horse refuge, using the concepts they have learned.
