Note that P  lies on the director circle  x2+y2=4. The equation of P R can be written as x3cos+ysinθ=1  for some  θ
Since the slope of P R is  1,sinθ=12 and so the equation of P R is x+y=2 .
 This implies that the equation of P Q is yx=2 . 
The slope of Q R is 13 , while using the fact that Q R is tangent to the auxiliary circle x2+y2=3, its equation can be written as xcosθ1+ysinθ1=3  for some θ1 . 
Thus, cotθ1=13 or θ1=60° , and so the equation of Q R is x+3y=23 .
We now have the equations of the three sides of  PQR, from which we can obtain all the points:
P(0,2),Q(6+23,4+23),R(6+23,423)
The centroid is (43,2)  while the circumcenter is the mid-point of Q R, i.e.,  (23,4).
