If you're given three points and need to determine the perimeter of a square or rectangle, you'll first need to compute the distances between these points. These distances will act as the sides of your shape. In the case of a rectangle, you find the lengths of the unique sides, sum them up, and then double this total. For a square, you just take the length of one side and multiply it by 4.
