Today we learned how to find the area and the perimeter of a triangle. With the activity we did in class, we discovered that the area of a triangle is 1/2 the area of a rectangle. Therefore the formula for area of a triangle is A = 1/2bh. Perimeter is the distance around a figure. So to find perimeter of a triangle, you would add up all 3 sides of the triangle.
