The triangle with vertices A%3D%280%2C3%29%2C B%3D%28-1%2C0%29%2C C%3D%281.0%29 has  %0D%0AA%27%3D%280%2C-sqrt3%29%2C B%27%3D%281%2F2%29%281%2B3sqrt3%2C4%29 and C%27%3D%281%2F2%29%28-1-3sqrt3%2C 4%29%2C and a simple calculation shows that the distance between A%27 and B%27 is not equal to that between B%27 and C%27.
