The semi-perimeter of a triangle  calculator      Triangle  computes half the length of the perimeter of a triangle.  

INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:

• (a) - length of side a
• (b) - length of side b
• (c) - length of side c

Semi-Perimeter (s): The calculator computes the semi-perimeter in meters. However, this can be automatically converted to many other length units (e.g. inches) via the pull-down menu.

This formula also confirms that the three length can form a triangle. If not, an error message is returned.

The Math/Science

The formula for the semi-perimeter of a triangle is:

    s = (a + b + c) / 2

where:

• s = semi-perimeter of triangle
• a, b, c = length of the three sides of the triangle.
