In triangle geometry, the circumcentre of a triangle is a point which represents the centre of the circumcircle, the circle containing the three vertices; and the point common to the three perpendicular bisectors of the three sides.

More generally, if a polygon is cyclic, so that the vertices lie on a circle, the centre of that circle is the circumcentre.
