There are 3 sides to this triangle (as you might expect). In each case you'll need to use the Pythagorean Theorem to determine the length of the side. For example, the length of side AB is

sqrt( 5^2+3^2) = sqrt(25+9)= sqrt(34).

Find the lengths of sides BC and CA in the same way, and then add together the 3 lengths.
