Travis measures the perimeter of a sandbox.One of the sides is 8 feet long, and the perimeter is 24 feet.If all of the sides are the same length, what is the shape of the sandbox?

If one of the sides of the sandbox is 8 feet and the perimeter is 24 feet, then the sandbox must have 3 sides since 8 x 3 = 24. Since all sides of the sandbox are the same length, it is a equilateral triangle.
