I wasn't apparent from your first diagram how you determined the distance to shift the line, it just looked that you measured along the side and moved the line the same distance to the other side of the bisector. From looking at your second diagram I see you determine the radius of the circle as the distance from the center of the bisector to a tangent to the median and then draw the Symmedian line tangent to the circle on the opposite side so I see why it works. But, it is still a lot of work.
