Step-by-step explanation:
Draw perpendicular bisectors PQ and RS of sides AB and BC respectively of triangle ABC. Let PQ bisects AB at M and RS bisects BC at point N.
Let PQ and RS intersect at point O.
Join OA, OB and OC.
Now in AOM and BOM,
AM = MB [By construction]
AMO = BMO = [By construction]
OM = OM [Common]
AOM BOM [By SAS congruency]
OA = OB [By C.P.C.T.] …..(i)
Similarly, BON CON
OB = OC [By C.P.C.T.] …..(ii)
From eq. (i) and (ii),
OA = OB = OC
Hence O, the point of intersection of perpendicular bisectors of any two sides of ABC equidistant from its vertices.
