How do you find the constellation, Perseus in the night sky?

Like use another constellation or a star in another constellation (i.e. North Star) to help locate Perseus.|||I usually locate Perseus relative to Cassiopeia. Perseus is just to the southeast, off the stretched end of Cassiopeia's "W".|||The Perseids are one of the most famous and most glorious meteor showers.

Cassiopeia is easy to find in the Northern sky. I'm sure you have seen it - it looks like a W. If you take the W, imagine it's right side up, and split it into two Vs, then take the left hand V and extend the right side of that V downward, the next big group of stars is Perseus.|||use the Big Dipper and Polaris to find one of the constellations surrounding Perseus, and from that constellation find Perseus.
