is this applicable if i only have the 3 coordinate points for a triangle and the distances between them and want to find the coordinates of the Fermat point. If so would i approach it by finding the gradients of each of my three distance formulas in relation to the Fermat point and solve for a system of three equations? running into a lot of tedious dead ends this way and want to know if there is a better approach.
