  17. The 3 perpendicular bisectors of any triangle will intersect at a point that is equidistant from the vertices of the triangle. This point is called the circumcenter and is the center of a circle that contains all 3 vertices of the triangle. 5-1: Special Segments in Triangles

  18. Perpendicular Bisector Theorem A point lies on the perpendicular bisector of a segment iff it is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment. 5-1: Special Segments in Triangles

  30. Angle Bisectors of Triangles Every triangle has 3 angle bisectors which will always intersect in the same point - the incenter. The incenter is the same distance from all 3 sides of the triangle. The incenter of a triangle is also the center of a circle that will intersect each side of the triangle in exactly one point. 5-1: Special Segments in Triangles
