Yes. If you have an isosceles triangle standing up on the unequal side, then
the line segment from the top vertex perpendicular to the base is all of these.

Is the altitude of a triangle always the perpendicular bisector?

No.


Can an altitude be a perpendicular bisector?

Yes - the altitude of an equilateral triangle is perpendicular to the side chosen as the base and bisects that side and the opposite angle. Also, the altitude of an isosceles triangle when measured from the third side (the side that is not equal to the other two sides) is a perpendicular bisector of the base and also bisects the opposite angle.


Is the altitude of an isosceles triangle the angle bisector of the vertex?

Yes, provided that the base is not one of the 2 equal sides. And it's also the perpendicular bisector of the base.


Can the angle bisector of a triangle also be the perpendicular bisector?

Yes. The bisector of one angle of a triangle is the perpendicular bisector of theopposite side if the bisected angle is the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle,or any angle of an equilateral triangle.


What are the 4 particular lines for a triangle?

Maybe they are bisector, median, altitude and the middle perpendicular. (I hope I put it in English right :)


Perpendicular bisector of a triangle?

Is a line that bisects a side of a triangle and is perpendicular to that side.


How does the perpendicular bisector affect the vertex angle of an isoceles triangle?

The perpendicular bisector bisects the angle at the vertex.


Is a perpendicular bisector always an angle bisector?

thank goodness for my math teacher, norm! he said only in an isosceles triangle. The bisector of the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is perpendicular to the base! =)


Could the median of a triangle be the perpendicular bisector?

Yes in equilateral triangle.


What triangle must always have at least one angle bisector that is also a perpendicular bisector?

any isosceles triangle


How is constructing a perpendicular bisector different to constructing an angle bisector?

A perpendicular bisector is a straight line that divides a side of a triangle in two and is at right angles to that side. An angle bisector is a straight line that divides an angle of a triangle in two.


What is a perpendicular bisector on a triangle?

It is a perpendicular line (a vertical line) that divides the triangle into two equal parts.
