The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 24 cm. What is the length of each side?

Let’s first clarify some concepts:

Perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides.

Equilateral triangle – a triangle in which the lengths of all sides are the same.

Now let’s move on to the solution.

First you need to know that the perimeter is 24 cm, and also that this is an equilateral triangle.

Knowing this, we can find the length of one side.

This can be done in one action – division:

24 cm: 3 = 8 cm.
