TTie perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a tri^angle are concurrent in a point which is equidistant fromthe three vertices of the Given A ^5(7 with FG, HK, ED, the ± bisectors of AB, BC, prove: (a) FG, HK, ED concurrent in some point as 0;(b) the point 0 equidistant from A, B, and C Argument 1. FG and ED will intersect at some point as 0. 2. Draw OA, OB, and OC. 3o •. O is in FG, the _L bisectorof AB, OB = OA; and•. O is in DE, the X bi-sector of CA, 00 = OA, 4. .-. OB = OC. 5. .*. HK, the _L bisector of BCf passes through 0. 6. •. FG, HK, and ED are con- current in 0. 7. Also 0 is equidistant from A, B, and C. Reasons 1.
