Suppose you are given a circle. Give a construction to find its centre.

Steps of construction:

(i) Take three points A, B and C in the given circle.


(ii) Join AB and BC


(iii) Draw the perpendicular bisector of chord AB and BC which intersect each other at O


(iv) Point O will be the required centre of the circle because we know that, the perpendicular bisector of the chord always passes through the centre
