In the diagram, P1P2 and Q1Q2are the perpendicular bisectors of AB¯¯¯¯¯ and BC¯¯¯¯¯, respectively. A1A2 and B1B2 are the angle bisectors of ∠A and ∠B, respectively. What is the center of the circumscribed circle of ΔABC? a. p b. q c. r d. s
@iGreen @Lexi724
So a bisector cuts a shape in half equally. And the center is where 3 or more points meet up
In geometry, the circumscribed circle or circumcircle of a polygon is a circle which passes through all the vertices of the polygon. The center of this circle is called the circumcenter and its radius is called the circumradius.
so where is your vertices
ABC
right, sorry step by step here. so what do you think Q,R or S
i think its Q
By the way this is cole i was on wrong account
@Lexi724
anybody here?
@bibby @iGreen can you guys help?
@Lexi724 can you?
Sorry here
its all good
is q right?
I believe it is Q or S im not exactly sure on that.... @phi
would he know
yes
Because I am taking a test and I am trying to get a 100
i understand that feeliing
phi you got anything
Here is the idea. First, circumscribed is "fancy" for a circle on the outside of the triangle |dw:1428500744113:dw|
Second idea draw a chord (that is a line from one part of the circle to another part) |dw:1428500807250:dw|
