The perimeter of a  triangle

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of all its sides

For the given diagram, the perimeter of the  triangle is expressed as:

  • P = 45 + 36 + 27

  • P = 108 unts

If the perimeter is dilated by a factor of 1/2, the perimeter of the preimage is expressed as 108/2 = 54 units

Hence the perimeter of the preimage is 54 units
