Remember that the distance between a point and a line is the length of the perpendicular segment from the point to the line.
Based on these theorems, an angle bisector can be defined as the locus of all points in the interior of the angle that are equidistant from the sides of the angle.

Since a triangle has three sides, it has three perpendicular bisectors. When you construct the perpendicular bisectors, you find that they have an interesting property.
The perpendicular bisector of a side of a triangle does not always pass through the opposite vertex.
The circumcenter can be inside the triangle, outside the triangle, or on the triangle.

Example 4: Community Application Let the three towns be vertices of a triangle. By the Circumcenter Theorem, the circumcenter of the triangle is equidistant from the vertices. Draw the triangle formed by the three buildings. To find the circumcenter, find the perpendicular bisectors of each side. The position for the library is the circumcenter.
