The case should have them labeled where the standoffs are located.

 

What difficulties are you having? In theory, they should screw in.

Red circles are the standoff locations in that specific case, green circle on that motherboard is the locations of the screws on just some random mATX board. 

You put the standoff in by hand (as in screw them in) and you can tighten them a bit with the correct allen wrench and if you don't have that, you can do it carefully with plyers too.

You should definitely tighten them down further as tightening the screws can cause the standoffs to come out if you ever needed to remove the motherboard.
