How do I find the perimeter of a triangle with sides 3 ft 8 in., 2 ft 10 in., and 4 ft?

Formula for triangle perimeter is: a + b + c. In this scenario we have:
a = 3 feet 8 inches b = 2 feet 10 inches c = 4 feet
a + b + c = = 3 ft + 8 in + 2 ft + 10 in + 4 ft = = 9 ft + 18 in
We know that 1 foot is 12 inches, so we can simplify the result to this form:
10 ft + 6 in
or:
10.5 feet

To find the perimeter of the triangle, convert all side measurements to inches and then add them together. In this case, the perimeter is 10 ft 6 in or 10.5 feet. The calculation shows that the total length around the triangle adds up to 126 inches.
