        Circumcenters

            14. Is the circumcenter of an obtuse triangle in, out, or on the triangle?
            15. In this drawing, lines     ,      and      are perpendicular bisectors of
               ⊿             and meet at T. If TQ =2x, PT =3y-1, and TR =8, find x, y,
               and z.




            16. Complete the graphic organizer. Fill in all spaces, although we are primarily concerned with
               incenters and circumcenters, aka inradii and circumradii.

        Constructions –Inscribe a circle within this triangle to create an incenter. Use only a compass and
        straightedge.
