Circumcircle of a trangle with its circumcenter inside the triangle

						var board = JXG.JSXGraph.initBoard('box1', {

});

var p1 = board.create('point', [-6, -2],{face:'',label:{offset:[-15,0]}});
var p2 = board.create('point', [5, -2],{face:'',label:{offset:[10,0]}});
var p3 = board.create('point', [1.5, 7.5],{face:''});
var l1 = board.create('segment', [p1, p2]);
var l2 = board.create('segment', [p1,p3],);
var l3 = board.create('segment', [p2,p3],);

  1. The above statement is actually the law of sines, which tells us that the lengths of the sides of a triangle over the sines of their corresponding opposite angles are equal to a constant variable, i.,e., the diameter of the circumscribed circle of the triangle.

    Considering three cases when the circumcenter is inside or outside the triangle, or on one side of the triangle, we will prove the equation, for any given side c and its opposite interior angle C in a triangle,


    \dfrac{c}{\sin C} =2R ,


    in which R is the radius of the circumcircle of the triangle.
