To draw: a right
Answer to Problem 4WE
Explanation of Solution
Given:
A right-angled triangle.
A circumscribed circle is a circle which passes through all the vertices of a given curve.
In this case a circumscribed circle will be a circle which passes through all the vertices of a right angled triangle.
First we draw a right angled triangle.
ABC is a right angled triangle with right angle at B .
Take any side let’s say AB , draw perpendicular bisector of this line.
Now take an adjacent side of AB, let’s say AC, draw the perpendicular bisector of AC
Name the point of intersection of the two bisectors as O.
Now draw a circle by taking O as center and passing through all three vertices A, B and C.
This is the required figure.
