You need to apply the distance formula three times. Once to find the distance from a to b, once to find the distance from b to c, and once more to find the distance from c to a. Of course, with variables as two of your
coordinates, you are going to have variables in your answer.
Here is the distance formula:
where
and
are the coordinates of the given points.
