  2. Bisection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisection

    The interior perpendicular bisector of a side of a triangle is the segment, falling entirely on and inside the triangle, of the line that perpendicularly bisects that side. The three perpendicular bisectors of a triangle's three sides intersect at the circumcenter (the center of the circle through the three vertices). Thus any line through a ...

    Construct the line segment BB' and using a hyperbolic ruler, construct the line OI" such that OI" is perpendicular to BB' and parallel to B'I". Then, line OA is the angle bisector for ᗉ IAI'. [3] Case 2c: IB' is ultraparallel to I'B. Using the ultraparallel theorem, construct the common perpendicular of IB' and I'B, CC'. Let the intersection ...

  5. Perpendicular bisector construction of a quadrilateral

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perpendicular_bisector...

    In geometry, the perpendicular bisector construction of a quadrilateral is a construction which produces a new quadrilateral from a given quadrilateral using the perpendicular bisectors to the sides of the former quadrilateral.

  6. Concurrent lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_lines

    The three perpendicular bisectors meet at the circumcenter. Other sets of lines associated with a triangle are concurrent as well. For example: Any median (which is necessarily a bisector of the triangle's area) is concurrent with two other area bisectors each of which is parallel to a side. [1]

  7. Special cases of Apollonius' problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_cases_of_Apollonius...

    To construct the perpendicular bisector of the line segment between two points requires two circles, each centered on an endpoint and passing through the other endpoint (operation 2). The intersection points of these two circles (operation 4) are equidistant from the endpoints. The line through them (operation 1) is the perpendicular bisector.

  8. Equidistant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equidistant

    Perpendicular bisector of a line segment. The point where the red line crosses the black line segment is equidistant from the two end points of the black line segment. The cyclic polygon P is circumscribed by the circle C. The circumcentre O is equidistant to each point on the circle, and a fortiori to each vertex of the polygon.

    Perpendicular bisector construction can refer to: Bisection § Line segment bisector, on the construction of the perpendicular bisector of a line segment; Perpendicular bisector construction of a quadrilateral, on the use of perpendicular bisectors of a quadrilateral's sides to form another quadrilateral
