Thank u Danny Kodicek...
and i am presenting the solution to solve SSS triangle...
/////////SOLVE TRIANGLE ///////////////////////////////////////
///pass the instance names of there movieclips on the stage
//this function returns a Solution Object
//Solution object has:
//a-side1

function solveTriangle(a_mc, b_mc, c_mc) {
   a = distance(b_mc, c_mc);
   b = distance(c_mc, a_mc);
   c = distance(a_mc, b_mc);
   //////find Angle A
   var A = (Math.pow(b, 2)+Math.pow(c, 2)-Math.pow(a, 2))/(2*b*c);
   A = Degree(Math.acos(A));
   //trace(A);
   /////find Angle B
   var B = (Math.pow(a, 2)+Math.pow(c, 2)-Math.pow(b, 2))/(2*a*c);
   B = Degree(Math.acos(B));
   //trace(B);
   var C = 180-(A+B);
   //trace(C);
   A = Math.round(A);
   B = Math.round(B);
   C = Math.round(C);
   var solution = {a:a, b:b, c:c, A:A, B:B, C:C};
   return solution;
}
function distance(p1, p2) {
   //returns pixels
   var dx = p2._x-p1._x;
   var dy = p2._y-p1._y;
   var dis = Math.pow(dx, 2)+Math.pow(dy, 2);
   var dis = Math.sqrt(dis);
   return dis;

function Degree(rad) {
   return (180/Math.PI)*rad;
}
function Radian(deg) {
   return (Math.PI/180)*deg;
}

I am having 3 movie Clips named point1_mc, point2_mc, point3_mc in the
stage. They are arranged  in such a way to form a triangle...
Now how can i get those 3 angles and sides formed by these points.?


Sides are given by the lengths of the vectors between the points (eg: x = point1_mc._x - point2_mc._x, y = point1_mc._y - point2_mc._y, so side length =sqrt(x*x + y*y) )

Once you have these sides, you can use the cosine rule to find the angles: If you know the three sides a,b,c, the angle A between the sides b and c is given by a*a = b*b + c*c - 2*b*c*cosA.

To get acos(A), you need to use atan(A): acos(A)=atan(A/sqrt(1 - A*A))

Best
Danny
