Something is very wrong with the way you stated your problem. The degree measure of any of the angles of an equilateral triangle is 
. So how could the degree measures of your three angles be equal to three different expressions? 
would have to have a different value in each of the expressions. Be that as it may, whether an equilateral triangle has sides that measure 3 Angstroms or 3 light-years, the angles are still exactly , hence knowing the measure of the angles tells you nothing about the measure of the sides.
