Circumcenter Exploration

1. Looking at this picture, what are some things you notice now? Make at least two conjectures about circumcenters. 2. Test you conjectures by adjusting the vertices to make several types of triangles. Is your conjecture true? If it is not, how would you change your conjecture? 3. Is the circumcenter always inside the triangle? Explain your reasoning. 4. How would you describe the circumcenter of a triangle to a classmate who was not here for today's lesson?
