Distance covered in 6 s is :

12 × 3 = 36 m

Since the triangle is equilateral.

Total time = 9s

Total rounds in 9 s = 9/6 = 1.5

Let triangle be ABC

0.5 Indicates that it's half a round hence can get the displacement.

Half of the triangle forms a right angled triangle with hyp = 12, base = 6

We are looking for h which is the displacement.

We will use Pythagoras theorem :

12² - 6² = 108

√108 = 10.39
This is the displacement magnitude.

The distance equals to :

1.5 × 36 = 54m
