définissent

"et définissent un triangle entre les trois points de fixation"
C'est comme ça que l'écrirait un prof de maths, et c'est un brevet, donc on peut utiliser un vocabulaire mathématique précis

"trois points définissent un triangle" ou "trois droites définissent un triangle" c'est de mathématique élémentaire dont vous trouverez plein d'occurrences
