RoadTrip3

Students will be asked to find the circumcenter (without using that term yet), by dragging around the red dot to see where the distance to all three cities is mostly equal. Leads into discussion of perpendicular bisectors, and also into why equal amount of distance between cities not necessarily most important. Minimizing total distance traveled by all three people is an application of the Fermat point.
