The circumcenter of a triangle is the point where the perpendicular bisectors of the sides intersect. It is also the center of the circumcircle, the circle that passes through all three vertices of the triangle. This page shows how to construct (draw) the circumcenter of a triangle with compass and straightedge or ruler. This construction assumes you are already familiar with Constructing the Perpendicular Bisector of a Line Segment.

Answer:

$\frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming that you mean (4,−9) and (8, -3).

$m=\frac{rise}{run}=\frac{-3+9}{8-4}=\frac{6}{4}=\boxed{\frac{3}{2}}$

A student attempted the work below, identify any errors in each line. If no error is found, describe in words what step was take

AleksAgata [21]

1.No error , he divided by 16 in the 2 sides .
2.no error ,he made sure that 16/16 is one while d/16 remains
3.no error , he square rooted both sides
4.error, as the root gives one positive value and one negative value not only a positive value ,the answer should have been t=+-(d/4)
5.error,he disturbed the whole equation by rooting d only he should have rooted both sides
