Yes, it is sometimes true that the circumcenter is outside its associated triangle. To determine whether the circumcenter is inside, outside, or on the triangle, we need to consider the type of triangle.

For an acute triangle (all angles less than 90 degrees), the circumcenter is always inside the triangle. This is because the three perpendicular bisectors of the triangle's sides intersect at a single point which lies inside the triangle.

For an obtuse triangle (one angle greater than 90 degrees), the circumcenter is always outside the triangle. This is because the three perpendicular bisectors of the triangle's sides still intersect at a single point, but this point lies outside the triangle.

For a right triangle (one angle equal to 90 degrees), the circumcenter can be either inside, outside, or on the triangle. It depends on the specific angles and lengths of the triangle.

Therefore, it is not always true that the circumcenter is outside the triangle, nor is it never true. It is sometimes true, depending on the type of triangle.
