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. Finally, explore a situation where the perimeter is known but one of the side lengths is a variable. This results in an equation that can be solved for the variable.
