First it is important to understand the concept of concurrency.
Concurrent lines (segments or rays) are lines which lie in the same plane and intersect in a single point. The point of intersection is the point of concurrency. For example, point A is the point of concurrency.

The following is an interactive proofusing GSP.

Claim:
The three perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle are concurrent.
Proof:
Step 1:

Step 2
Construct the midpoint of segment AC. Label the midpoint of AC as M.

Step 3
Construct the perpendicular bisector of segment AC. Call the perpendicular bisector p.

Step 4
Construct any point K on the perpendicular bisector p.

Step 5
Construct segment AK and segment KC.

AM=MC by definition of midpoint.
KM=KM by the reflexive property.
Angle AMK and angle CMK are cut by a perpendicular line, p. Hence, the angles are right angles and are both equal to 90 degrees. So, m<AMK = m<CMK and angle AMK is congruent to angle CMK.
Now, triangle AMK is congruent to triangle CMK by SAS.
By CPCTC, AK=KC.

Step 6
Construct the midpoint of segment AC. Call it M'.
Construct the perpendicular bisector of AC. Label as q.

Since AC and BC are not parallel, the perpendicular bisectors, p and q, must also intersect.
Let point K be the point of intersection.
Step 7
Constuct point K as the point of intersection of p and q.

Step 8
Construct segment BK.

KC=BK using similar reasoning in Step 5. We know AK=KC. So by substitution AK=KC=BK.
Furthermore, K is taken to be the intersection of the perpendicular bisectors p and q.
Since K is on the perpendicular bisectors p and q, it must also lie on the perpendicular bisector of AB.
Therefore, K is on the perpendicular bisector of AB.
Since K lies on the perpendicular bisectors of AC, BC, and AB, K is the point of concurrency.
Hence, we have proved that the three perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle are concurrent.
The following shows the construction of the perpendicular bisector of AB, labeled as r.
The picture shows K to be the point of concurrency.
