From Wikipedia:
"The point at which the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle meet, or the circumcenter, is equidistant from the vertices of the triangle." The three vertices of the triangle are on a circle with its center at the circumcenter.
"A perpendicular bisector of a line segment is a line segment perpendicular to and passing through the midpoint."
"The circumcenter of an obtuse triangle is outside the triangle.
(note: on a side if a right triangle; inside triangle if an acute triangle)
