| The circumcenter is the point at which the three perpendicular bisectors
of the sides of a triangle intersect. It is also the center of the circle
circumscribed around a triangle. This circle passes through all three vertices
of the triangle. The definition of the perpendicular bisector of
a side of a triangle is a line segment that is both perpendicular to a
side of a triangle and passes through its midpoint.
Use Geometer's Sketchpad and state a conjecture concerning possible
locations of the circumcenter.
