So I guess your exigency is that you need to know (for class maybe) but you are too lazy to use the appropriate channels, so you turn to a simpler method that you subconsiously think is good due to past experiences.

It wouldn't have been a problem if you had bumped your prior blog post with the question, or so I'd reckon.

Except that the circumcenter is not the same as the center of mass...
I suggest you read the book Geometry Revisited by Coxeter if you are interested in advanced Euclidean geometry

so that when someone asks you "what's the application of knowing the circumcenter of a triangle" on TL, you can give them the answer.

The circumcenter of a triangle is the center of the circle which contains all three vertices of the triangle.

It is in general different than the center of mass of the triangle, also called the centroid.

Other common triangle centers include the orthocenter and the incenter. There are little hundreds of interesting triangle centers listed here: http://faculty.evansville.edu/ck6/encyclopedia/

For 99.9% of the world, there's no direct, practical use. It's mental weight-lifting. You do it to prove to other people and organizations that you can (via marks, etc.) and to train up your brain so that when you need the analytical, logical, spatial, reasoning, and discipline skills in the real world, you have them.
