Q:

Which geometric construction is shown here?A)construct a circle given 3 pointsB)construct the center of a given circleC)construct the orthocenter of a triangleD)construct the tangent to a point on the circle

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:Option: B is the correct answer.B) Construct the center of a given circle.Step-by-step explanation:The center of the circle is constructed as:Draw a chord AB and construct it's perpendicular bisector.Draw another chord CD and construct it's perpendicular bisector.The point where the perpendicular bisectors of both the chord meet gives us the center of the given circle.Hence, option B is correct we are given a geometric construction of center of a given circle.
