The only way is to find the length of all the lines by the staight-line "Pythagoras Theorem" length formula.

We use the formula for the length of a straight line, which is the square root of

(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2

to find the length of the straight line joining two points together.

The above formula is actually a more general expression of the Pythagoras Theorem, since x2 - x1 represents the “horizontal” distance between both points and y2 - y1 represents the “vertical” distance between both points.

We have to do so over the three sets of coordinate pairs.

Length of AB is the square root of

(xB - xA)^2 + (yB - yA)^2.

Length of BC is the square root of
(xC - xB)^2 + (yC - yB)^2.

Length of CA is the square root of
(xA - xC)^2 + (yA - yC)^2.

Add these three values for the perimeter of the triangle.
