Answer:
Let A,B and C be three non-collinear points
Join AB and BC
Draw perpendicular bisector of AB and BC
Let them meet at point O
Then O lie on the right bisector of AB
So, OA=OB
And O lies on the right bisector of BC
So, OB=OC
Hence, the point O is equidistant from A,B and C.
Now since the right bisector of AB and BC are non-parallel lines, therefore they have only one point in common.
So, O is the only point equidistant from A,B and C.
Hence, the required locus is the centre of the circle through the given non-collinear points.
