I have the coordinates of three points on a plane. Let's call them X1,Y1, X2,Y2, X3 Y3.

I need to calculate X4,Y4 but all I know is:

X1,Y1 is 350 units in distance from X4,Y4 X2,Y2 is 200 units in distance from X4,Y4 X3,Y3 is 50 units in distance from X4,Y4

I Know The Exact Values For X1,Y1, X2,Y2, and X3,Y3

How can I determine the exact location of X4,Y4?
