Use the Circumcenter Theorem GARDEN A triangular-shaped garden is shown. Can a fountain be placed at the circumcenter and still be inside the garden? By the Circumcenter Theorem, a point equidistant from three points is found by using the perpendicular bisectors of the triangle formed by those points. Example 2
Use the Circumcenter Theorem Copy ΔXYZ, and use a ruler and protractor to draw the perpendicular bisectors. The location for the fountain is C, the circumcenter of ΔXYZ, which lies in the exterior of the triangle. C Answer: No, the circumcenter of an obtuse triangle is in the exterior of the triangle. Example 2

Use the Incenter Theorem A. Find SU if S is the incenter of ΔMNP. By the Incenter Theorem, since S is equidistant from the sides of ΔMNP,ST = SU. Find SU by using the Pythagorean Theorem. a2 + b2 = c2 Pythagorean Theorem 82 + SU2 = 102 Substitution 64 + SU2 = 100 82 = 64, 102 = 100 Example 4
Use the Incenter Theorem SU2 = 36 Subtract 64 from each side. SU = ±6 Take the square root of each side. Since length cannot be negative, use only the positive square root, 6. Since ST = SU, SU = 6. Answer:SU = 6 Example 4
Since MS bisects RMT, mRMT = 2mRMS. So mRMT = 2(31) or 62. Likewise, mTNU = 2mSNU, so mTNU = 2(28) or 56. Use the Incenter Theorem B. Find mSPU if S is the incenter of ΔMNP. Example 4
Since PS bisects UPR, 2mSPU = mUPR. This means that mSPU = mUPR. 1 1 __ __ 2 2 Answer:mSPU = (62) or 31 Use the Incenter Theorem mUPR + mRMT + mTNU = 180 Triangle Angle Sum Theorem mUPR + 62 + 56 = 180 Substitution mUPR + 118 = 180 Simplify. mUPR = 62 Subtract 118 from each side. Example 4
