Circumcircle of a TriangleGeometry construction using a compass and straightedge Circumcircle of a TriangleGeometry construction using a compass and straightedgeThe circumcircle of a triangle is the circle that passes through all three vertices of the triangle. The construction first establishes the circumcenter and then draws the circle. circumcenter of a triangle is the point where the perpendicular bisectors of the sides intersect. This page shows how to construct (draw) the circumcircle of a triangle with compass and straightedge or ruler. This construction assumes you are already familiar with Constructing the Perpendicular Bisector of a Line Segment.An excellent tutorial from mathopenref.com
