What step is needed when constructing a circle circumscribed about a triangle? A. Construct the angle bisectors of each angle in the triangle. B. Construct the perpendicular bisectors of each side of the triangle. C. Construct the midpoints of each side of the triangle. D. Construct the altitude of each angle in the triangle.

OpenStudy (math&ing001):

The intersection of the perpendicular bisectors would be the center of that circle.

Oh, thank you. So would that be B?

OpenStudy (math&ing001):

Yeah !

OpenStudy (haseeb96):

circum means around so circumscribed means around the circle in which triangle is under the circle but its all three sides must touch the circle...

B is the correct one
