Best Answer

Every median starts at a vertex and ends at the midpoint of a side. It's pretty hard

to cover that route via the outside of the triangle, especially a straight-line route.

Does the three medians of a triangle intersect at a point in the interior of the triangle always sometimes or never?

sometimes


Do the medians of a triangle bisect the internal angles?

Not always. 1. The median to the base of an isosceles triangle bisects the vertex angle. 2. When the triangle is an equilateral triangle, then the medians bisect the interior angles of the triangle.


Do the medians of a triangle always intersect inside the triangle?

Yes.


Are the medians always inside a right triangle?

no


How many medians does a triangle have?

Depends on the type of triangle. * * * * * Always 3.


Will the medians of an obtuse triangle ever intersect on the triangle?

Yes. Medians always intersect in a single point, called the centroid, or geocenter.


Will the medians always intersect inside an acute triangle?

Yes.


Will medians sometimes intersect inside a acute triangle?

Always.


Any triangle has what medians?

Any triangle has 3 medians Another answer (depending on what you are looking for) is that a triangle has concurrent medians (which means all three medians intersect at a single point).


Point of intersection of medians in a triangle?

The point where the three medians of a triangle intersect is called the centroid of the triangle.


Are the medians of a triangle equidistant from each vertex?

Every triangle has three medians, just like it has three altitudes, angle bisectors, and perpendicular bisectors. The medians of a triangle are the segments drawn from the vertices to the midpoints of the opposite sides. The point of intersection of all three medians is called the centroid of the triangle. The centroid of a triangle is twice as far from a given vertex than it is from the midpoint to which the median from that vertex goes. For example, if a median is drawn from vertex A to midpoint M through centroid C, the length of AC is twice the length of CM. The centroid is 2/3 of the way from a given vertex to the opposite midpoint. The centroid is always on the interior of the triangle.


What kind of triangle will be produced if one of its medians is perpundicular to the opposite side of that triangle?

In an isosceles triangle, one of the medians is perpendicular to the opposite side of that triangle. In an equilateral triangle, all three medians are perpendicular to the sides of that triangle.
