The answer depends on what point of concurrency you are referring to. There are four segments you could be talking about in triangles. They intersect in different places in different triangles. Medians--segments from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side. In acute, right and obtuse triangles, the point of concurrency of the medians (centroid) is inside the triangle. Altitudes--perpendicular segments from a vertex to a line containing the opposite side. In an acute triangle, the point of concurrency of the altitudes (orthocenter) is inside the triangle, in a right triangle it is on the triangle and in an obtuse triangle it is outside the triangle. Perpendicular bisectors of sides--segments perpendicular to each side of the triangle that bisect each side. In an acute triangle, the point of concurrency of the perpendicular bisectors (circumcenter) is inside the triangle, in a right triangle it is on the triangle and in an obtuse triangle it is outside the triangle. Angle bisectors--segments from a vertex to the opposite side that bisect the angles at the vertices. In acute, right and obtuse triangles, the point of concurrency of the angle bisectors (incenter) is inside the triangle.
By definition, any lines/segments that are perpendicular to each other either do, or (in the case of non-intersecting segments) would, intersect each other at right angles. A right angle being a 90* angle. Therefore, perpendicular, intersecting line segments will form 4 90* angles.
They are the "legs" of the triangle.
An obtuse triangle does not always have three congruent sides. An obtuse triangle can be any form that always has three angles.
First lets define Scalene Triangle; It is a triangle with one right angle, the two other angles are unequal and none of the sides are equal. So to draw it, you have to follow a few steps; 1. Draw two perpendicular lines with one tip joining the tip of the other. 2. The length of both lines should not be equal. 3. Draw one more line to join the two ends of the lines. You will have your Right Angled Scalene Triangle. ======================================= -- Draw two line segments perpendicular, i.e. they meet at a corner. -- Make sure that they don't both end the same distance from the corner. -- Connect the the ends of the segments. -- Shazam. You have a right scalene triangle.
Yes the given segments would form an isosceles triangle
Yes the given segments would form an isosceles triangle
Two segments cannot form a triangle.
seriously?
any three that connect
Yes. What you should watch out for is that, to form a triangle, none of the segments should be longer (or as long as) the other two segments combined. Just check whether the longest segment is longer than the sum of the other two - if it is, then you can't form a triangle.
any three that connect
No, segments 1, 8, and 8 cannot form a triangle. In order for three segments to form a triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side. In this case, 1 + 8 is equal to 9, which is not greater than 8. Therefore, a triangle cannot be formed.
a triangle is formed by line segments that connect two non-collinear points
