the distance ap, bp and cp are the unknowns. we can get 3 simultaneous equations based on the condition that the permeters are same. ie, ab+ap= bc+pc ... and so on . 3 unknows and 3 equations => we can find the unknowns. once we find the distance ap and bp, finding the point 'p' is again solved by two simultaneous equations
