How many sets of perpendicular lines are in a right triangle?
There is only one set of perpendicular lines in a right triangle; the horizontal line and the vertical line that make it 90 degrees.
Where is the altitude of a right triangle?
'altitude' or perpendicular. If on line is the base (horizontal) line, then the line that is a 90 degrees to it is the perpendicular/altitude.
Example of perpendicular lines?
a cross.tictactoe board.anything that crosses.|_________||
Name all types of triangles for which the point of concurrency is inside the triangle?
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.
Why the hypotenuse of a right angled triangle is always positive?
Because it is the sum of square of base and perpendicular
Which triangle is the only triangle that has perpendicular lines?
The Right Triangle. Perpendicular lines make a right angle.
How many pairs of perpendicular sides does a right triangle have?
Perpendicular means meeting at a right angle. A right triangle has 2 sides that are perpendicular, so it has 1 pair of sides that are perpendicular They are known as the "legs" of the right triangle.
Is a right triangle a perpendicular?
Yes a right angle triangle has perpendicular lines that form 90 degrees.
What are the perpendicular sides of a right triangle called?
The perpendicular sides of a right triangle are its legs. The remaining side is the hypotenuse.
Does a triangle have sides that are perpendicular?
No, not in general. Only a right triangle has two sides which are perpendicular.
What type of triangle has perpendicular lines?
a right triangle
Does a triangle have perpendicular faces?
No but a right angle triangle has perpendicular lines that meet at 90 degrees
What triangle has perpendicular sides?
Right triangle or 90 degree triangle.
How many pairs of perpendicular lines does an isosceles triangle have?
There can be only one pair of perpendicular lines in an isosceles triangle when it is a right angled isosceles triangle. A non right angled isosceles triangle has no pairs of perpendicular lines.
Can a right triangle have perpendicular sides?
No
Does a triangle have parallel and perpendicular sides?
A triangle has no parallel sides but in the form of a right angle triangle it has perpendicular lines that meet at right angles which is 90 degrees.
How many perpendicular angles do a triangle have?
If it's a right triangle, then one.There is no other way to have a perpendicular angle in a triangle without it being 90 degrees, or right.
