The radius of the circle that is perpendicular to a chord intersects the chord at its midpoint, so it is said to bisect the chord.

The point of concurrency for perpendicular bisectors of any triangle is the center of a circumscribed circle true or false?

The perpendicular bisector of ANY chord of the circle goes through the center. Each side of a triangle mentioned would be a chord of the circle therefore it is true that the perpendicular bisectors of each side intersect at the center.


How do you find the center of the circle?

-- Draw any two random chords of the circle. -- Construct the perpendicular bisector of each chord. -- The perpendicular bisectors intersect at the center of the circle. All of this can be done with a compass, an unmarked straight-edge, and a pencil.
