What are you asking again?
OpenStudy (mertsj):
Your problem says that point O is the circumcenter of the triangle. I'm thinking if we knew what the circumcenter is, it might help us to answer the question.

It is the point where the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle intersect right?
OpenStudy (mertsj):
Oh. I see. That is very helpful. Now which choice do you think is the correct one?
