Question
Which of the following diagrams shows a circle circumscribed about a triangle?(1 point)
Responses
A dotted circle, a triangle, and three lines are plotted within a grid of 5 rows by 5 columns. A right triangle with vertices upper A, upper B, and upper C is plotted. A point upper G is plotted within the triangle, which is the center of a circle.

The correct diagram that shows a circle circumscribed about a triangle is the one that includes a triangle and a circumcenter (the center of the circumscribed circle) located outside the triangle.
Based on your descriptions, the second option ("Triangle upper A upper C upper B is plotted within a circle on a 12 by 9 unit grid. A point inside the triangle is labeled circumcenter.") suggests that the point labeled as circumcenter is inside the triangle, which is inaccurate for a circumcircle.
The other options describe variations of triangles and circles, but without specifying that the circumcenter is correctly positioned outside the triangle itself.
If you are looking for the circumcenter, an ideal choice would be something that has a triangle with a dotted circle around it along with a point labeled as circumcenter positioned outside the triangle.
If none of the provided options specifically depicts that scenario, please double-check the options you've provided or the details given. In summary, the option where a triangle is plotted with the circumcenter not within the triangle is the accurate representation of a circumscribed circle.
