Which diagram shows a point P an equal distance from points A, B, and C?

hint : circumcenter is equidistant from its vertices

OpenStudy (nurali):

Hint: If you want PA = PB = PC all to be true, then you have to construct a circumcircle....which is done by finding the perpendicular bisector of AB, BC, and AC

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

look up "circumcenter" and see how it forms
