It is the circumcentre of the triangle formed by the three points. Draw the perpendicular bisectors of two of the lines joining the three points. They will meet at the point that is equidistant from the three points.

What is it called when three colors are in equal distance from each other on the color wheel?
secondary or primary i get them mixed up alot
Why are circles important to building equilateral triangles?
The three vertices of a circle are at the same distance form each other. The circumference of a circle identifies all points which are at a given distance from a point (vertex).
A point is from two points if its distance from each point is the same?
no
How could you arrange four points so that each of them was exactly the same distance from the other three?
use a ruler and measure it to see how far apart they should be.
Do parallel lines have to be equal?
No not in length but they must be equal distance apart from each other.
What are the equal divisions between the two fixed points?
Equal divisions between two fixed points refer to dividing the distance between the two points into equal segments. This can be achieved by dividing the total distance by the number of desired divisions. Each division would then have an equal length.
The circumcenter of a triangle is equidistant from the three vertices of the triangle?
This is true, by definition. Assume that there is a circle that passes through each vertex of a triangle. Then its centre, which we may call the circumcentre of the triangle, must be at an equal distance from each of the vertices because all of the points of the circle are at the same distance from this point.
How do you calculate the cartesian coordinate of 3rd corner on a triangle if you have the lengths of all three sides plus the coordinates of the other two corners?
With the distance formula. Call the points A, B, and C. Call the sides ab, bc, and ca. If we know where points A and B are, we can figure out the location of point C. We use two distance formulas. The length of cb and the location of B will give us a set of points an equal distance from point B (a circle with center at B). The length of ca and the location of A will give us a set of points an equal distance from point A (a circle with center at A). The intersection of these two sets (set the distance formulas equal to each other, or otherwise solve for the solution of a set of equations) will be the two possibilities of the vertex C.
What are a set of points equidistant from a given point?
Congruent. If the two points are an equal distance from a third point, then those two points are congruent to each other, in respect to the third point. This is a true statement, but it may not be what the question is looking for.
How would you know if lines a perpendicular or parallel?
perpendicular lines intersect each other at 90 degrees whereas parallel lines never intersect each other and remain equal distance apart from each other. Obviously the way to test if two lines are parallel is to measure their distance from each other at at least two points (the farther apart the better) to confirm that they remain equal distance apart, but to test if lines are perpendicular, with a compass with the point at the point where the two lines intersect, draw an arc (or three parts of an arc) that intersects one of the lines in two places and the other line in one place. If the distances between the lines at the points where they are intersected by the arc are equal, the lines are perpendicular.

How do you find out if two points have equal elevation?
The best way to find out if 2 points have equal elevation is to measure them. You must measure each of these points.

Do side parallels have to be equal?
Not in length but equal distance from each other
Can each plane be uniquely defined by three points?
Yes, a plane can be uniquely defined by three points as long as the three points are not colinear. (Three points are colinear if there is a straight line that passes through all three points.)
A point is from two points if its distance from each point is the same?
no
Why is all the points of a sphere are equal to each other?
Of the infinitely many points on a sphere, no two are the same as each other.
