The perimeterP of a plane figure is
the sum of the side lengths of the
figure.
The areaA of a plane figure is the
number of non-overlapping square
units of a given size that exactly
cover the figure.

The basebcan be any side of a
triangle.
The heighthis a segment forms a
right angle with the base. The height
may be a side of the triangle or in the
interior or the exterior of the triangle.
