Please draw or take a pic of your answer
Answers
Given : A triangle
To Find : Draw perpendicular bisectors
Solution:
Construct perpendicular bisectors
Step 1 : Label the vertices as A , B and C
Step 2 : Using suitable compass width and taking A as center Draw arc on both sides of AB
Step 3 : Keeping compass width same and taking B as center Draw arcs on both sides intersecting arc drawn in previous step at M & N
Draw a line passing through M & N which is perpendicular bisector of AB
Similarly draw perpendicular bisector of AC & BC

CONSTRUCTION: In triangle ABC , OQ & OR the perpendicular bisectors of sides BC & AC respectively, intersecting at point O. P is the mid point of AB.
TO PROVE THAT: OP is also a perpendicular bisector of AB. In that case , we can say that all 3 perpendicular bisectors are concurrent.
PROOF:
Since any point on the perpendicular bisector of any segment is equidistant from the end points of the segment. ( theorem proved by SAS congruency) . And also the converse of this theorem is true & can be proved by SAS congruency)
=> OB = OC
And also OC = OA
So, by above 2 statements, OB = OA. ………(1)
Also, PB = PA ( as P is the mid point of AB , by construction)
Hence, O & P both lie on the perpendicular bisector of AB. ( as these points are equidistant from A & B)
=> OP is the third perpendicular bisector of the triangle.
=> All 3 perpendicular bisectors have common point O.
Hence, these 3 are concurrent
