Making Perpendicular Bisectors: Ex. 9
DIRECTIONS:
1) Use the POLYGON 
tool to construct a triangle.
2) Use the PERPENDICULAR BISECTOR (PB) 
tool to construct the PB's of this triangle's 3 sides.
3) Plot the intersection of these 3 perpendicular bisectors (circumcenter).

3) Plot the intersection of these 3 perpendicular bisectors (circumcenter).
4)
Construct a circle centered at the circumcenter that passes through any vertex of this triangle. Why does this circle pass through the other 2 vertices of this triangle?
