Label the points A(0,0) and B(4,8)
\n" ); document.write( "Find the perpendicular bisector of AB
\n" ); document.write( "The center is the intersection of the bisector and y = 3.
\n" ); document.write( "The radius is the distance from the center to A or B
\n" ); document.write( "==================
\n" ); document.write( "Another method:
\n" ); document.write( "The center is equidistant from A and B and on the line y = 3.
\n" ); document.write( "
