Dear Piyush

All the distances should be equal.

Hence

after removing square root sign,

a² + b² = 2² + (2 $\large \sqrt$ 3)²

a² + b² = 16

Also

(a-2)² + (b- 2 $\large \sqrt$ 3)² = 16

a² +4 -4a + b² + 12 - 4 $\large \sqrt$ 3 b = 16

Now since a² + b² = 16

16 -4a -4 $\large \sqrt$ 3 b +16 = 16

Hence

a + $\large \sqrt$ 3 b = 4

a = 4 - $\large \sqrt$ 3 b

Put thia in any equation and you will get a and then b.
