X(3)
(CIRCUMCENTER)


Click here to access the list of all triangle centers.

Interactive Applet

You can move the points A, B and C (click on the point and drag it).
Press the keys “+” and “−” to zoom in or zoom out the visualization window and use the arrow keys to translate it.

You can also construct all centers related with this one (as described in ETC) using the “Run Macro Tool”. To do this, click on the icon Run Macro Tool, select the center name from the list and, then, click on the vertices A, B and C successively.

The JRE (Java Runtime Environment) is not enabled in your browser!

This applet was built with the free and multiplatform dynamic geometry software C.a.R..

X(3) is the point of concurrence of the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of ABC. The lengths of segments AX, BX, CX are equal if and only if X = X(3). This common distance is the radius of the circumcircle, which passes through vertices A,B,C. Called the circumradius, it is given by

R = a/(2 sin A) = abc/(4*area(ABC)).

X(3) lies on these lines:
