Number of Circles through 3 Non-collinear points Let’s consider 3 non-collinear points – A, B & C And, draw a circle through them Now, To find the center of a circle passing through A and B, we draw a perpendicular bisector To find the center for B and C, we draw another perpendicular bisector To find the center for A and C, we draw another perpendicular bisector Note: Two perpendicular bisectors are also enough Where all these 3 bisectors intersect is the center of circle O Now, taking O as center, and any of OA = OB = OC as radius We draw a circle containing all 3 points A, B & C Let’s look at the Proof of how only 1 circle can pass through 3 non-collinear points Proof is here – Theorem 1 of Chapter 5 Class 9 – Ganita Manjari Part 1
