To find the perimeter, which is the total length of the sides, you add the length of the sides.

I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.
The perimeter is the sum of all of the sides added up. 6 + 8 + 10 = ?
This is a scalene triangle.

P = side + side + side

P = 6 inches + 8 inches + 10 inches

P = 14 inches + 10 inches

P = 24 inches

Done!
The smaller triangle has sides 6 ​inches, 7 ​inches, and 14 inches. The 14​-inch side on the smaller triangle corresponds to a side of 24 inches of the larger triangle. What is the perimeter of the larger​ triangle?
