The circumcircle of a nondegenerate triangle is the unique circle through its three vertices. Its center is the circumcenter, found by intersecting two perpendicular bisectors; equality of distances to all three vertices proves existence, and subtracting the squared-distance equations proves uniqueness. For a right triangle, the midpoint of its hypotenuse is equidistant from all vertices, so its circumradius is half the hypotenuse length.
