3 <p>The perimeter of a shape is the total length of its boundary. The sum of all three sides is called the perimeter of a triangle. Perimeter is also used for fencing a property, sewing, and more. In this topic, we will learn about the perimeter of an acute triangle.</p>

4 <h2>What is the Perimeter of an Acute Triangle?</h2>

5 <p>The perimeter of an acute triangle is the total length of its three sides.</p>

6 <p>By adding the length of all three sides, we get the perimeter of the shape.</p>

7 <p>The<a>formula</a>for the perimeter of an acute triangle is 𝑃 = 𝑎 + 𝑏 + 𝑐, where a, b, and c are the sides of the triangle.</p>

8 <p>For instance, if an acute triangle has sides, a = 5, b = 7, and c = 9, then its perimeter is p = 5 + 7 + 9 = 21.</p>

9 <h2>Formula for Perimeter of Acute Triangle - 𝑷 = 𝑎 + 𝑏 + 𝑐.</h2>

10 <p>Let’s consider another example of an acute triangle with side lengths, 𝑎 = 7, 𝑏 = 11, and 𝑐 = 13.</p>

11 <p>So the perimeter of the triangle will be: 𝑷 = 𝑎 + 𝑏 + 𝑐 = 7 + 11 + 13 = 31.</p>

12 <h2>How to Calculate the Perimeter of an Acute Triangle</h2>

13 <p>To find the perimeter of an acute triangle, we just need to apply the given formula and<a>sum</a>all the sides of the triangle.</p>

14 <p>For instance, a given acute triangle has the sides of a = 6, b = 8, c = 10.</p>

15 <p>Perimeter = sum of all sides = 6 + 8 + 10 = 24 cm.</p>

16 <p>Example Problem on Perimeter of Acute Triangle - For finding the perimeter of an acute triangle, we use the formula, 𝑷 = 𝑎 + 𝑏 + 𝑐.</p>

17 <p>For example, let’s say, a = 3 cm, b = 4 cm, and c = 5 cm. Now, the perimeter = sum of all sides = 3 + 4 + 5 = 12 cm. Therefore, the perimeter of the acute triangle is 12 cm.</p>
