Solution

The correct option is A

2 cm



The radius of the circle = 2 cm

Steps for construction

Step 1: Draw triangle ABC with the given measurements.

Step 2: Construct the perpendicular bisectors of any two sides (AC and BC) and let them meet at S which is the circumcentre.

Step 3: With S as the center and SA = SB = SC as radius draw the circumcircle to pass through A, B and C.
