Video Summary

The problem involves an equilateral triangle with point P inside it. From P, three segments are drawn parallel to the sides of the triangle with lengths 2m, 3m, and 6m. By extending these segments, three new equilateral triangles are formed, where the segments determine the lengths of new triangle sides. The original triangle's side length is found by adding the lengths of these segments: 2 + 3 + 6 = 11m. Thus, the perimeter of the original equilateral triangle is 3 times the side length, resulting in a perimeter of 33m.
