This is 3 separate problems that can be solved using the same equation.
Take the coordinates of the points of one side and caluclate the length of the line using the formula. This formula uses the X & Y values to calculate the Length.
Repeat the same calculation for the other two sides.

How do you find the length of a triangle when perimeter is given?
If the triangle is equilateral, you simply divide the perimeter by three to find the length of each side. If the triangle is not equilateral, you will need more information to determine the length of each side.
How are the Pythagorean Theorem and distance formula related to each other?
Because a right angle triangle can be formed by the given coordinates and the length of the line is the hypotenuse of the triangle and so by using Pythagoras' theorem its length or distance can be found. Distance formula: square root of [(x1-x2)^2 plus (y1-y2)^2)]
How do you find the perimeter of a triangle when all three sides are given?
If you have the length of each of the three sides of a triangle, you can find the perimeter of (the distance around) the triangle by adding the length of the sides. Their sum will be the perimeter of this geometric shape.
What is the length of a triangle if its perimeter is 24 cm?
If a triangle with a perimeter of 24 cm is an equilateral triangle, then each of its 3 sides will be 8 cm in length
What is a regular triangle with side length of 15.5 inches?
If all 3 sides each have a length of 15½ inches, it would be called an Equilateral Triangle

In and 9651ABC the coordinates of vertices A and B are A(12) and B( and minus3 and minus1). For each of the given coordinates of vertex C is and 9651ABC a right triangle Select Right Triangle or Not a?
Not too sure of the question but if A is (1, 2) and B is (-3, -1) then it is a right angle triangle if the coordinates of C are at (1, -1) or (-3, 2)
How does each translation affect coordinates of the verticals of the triangle?
The answer depends on what you mean by "the verticals of a triangle".
How do you find the perimeter of a triangle when all three sides are given?
If you have the length of each of the three sides of a triangle, you can find the perimeter of (the distance around) the triangle by adding the length of the sides. Their sum will be the perimeter of this geometric shape.
How can you determine is it triangle when given three sides?
If the lengths of each pair of them add to more than the length of the third, they can form a triangle. If not, they cannot.
The perimeter of a triangle with equal sides is 36 miles what is the length of each side?
The length of each side of the triangle is 12 miles.
How do you find the area of a triangle with side lengths?
If you are only given the side lengths of a scalene triangle, it is impossible for you to find for the area, unless you are given more information... like the height of the triangle for example. If this is a right triangle you would like to find the area of, you can multiply the length of each leg with each other, and then divide that product by 2 to conclude the area of the triangle.
If the altitude of an equilateral triangle is 14 how long is each side of the triangle?
Each side of the triangle is 16.16581 units in length.
What is the proof that equilateral triangle is also called equiangular triangle?
Equilateral means 'same length' - Therefore if the length of each side in a triangle are the same, each angle MUST also be the same.
What is the length of a triangle if its perimeter is 24 cm?
If a triangle with a perimeter of 24 cm is an equilateral triangle, then each of its 3 sides will be 8 cm in length
What is the length of the hypotenuse if the sides of the right triangle are 6 meters each?
The length of the hypotenuse if the sides of the right triangle are 6 meters each is: 8.485 meters.
