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 ...

The perpendicular bisectors of all chords of a circle are concurrent at the center of the circle. The lines perpendicular to the tangents to a circle at the points of tangency are concurrent at the center. All area bisectors and perimeter bisectors of a circle are diameters, and they are concurrent at the circle's center.

The perpendicular bisector of a chord passes through the centre of a circle; equivalent statements stemming from the uniqueness of the perpendicular bisector are: A perpendicular line from the centre of a circle bisects the chord. The line segment through the centre bisecting a chord is perpendicular to the chord.
To draw the circumcircle, draw two perpendicular bisectors p 1, p 2 on the sides of the bicentric quadrilateral a respectively b. The perpendicular bisectors p 1, p 2 intersect in the centre O of the circumcircle C R with the distance x to the centre I of the incircle C r. The circumcircle can be drawn around the centre O.
Draw circle C that has PQ as diameter. Draw one of the tangents from G to circle C. point A is where the tangent and the circle touch. Draw circle D with center G through A. Circle D cuts line l at the points T1 and T2. One of the required circles is the circle through P, Q and T1. The other circle is the circle through P, Q and T2.
Draw the incenter by intersecting angle bisectors. Draw a line through perpendicular to the line , touching lines and at points and respectively. These are the tangent points of the mixtilinear circle.
