If a median of a triangle is also an altitude of a triangle then is the triangle isosceles?
Yes
Draw a triangle where the altitude is a side of the triangle?
Any right triangle resting on a leg.
If an isosceles triangle has a leg of 6 and a base of 8 what is the altitude?
Find this using the Pythagorean theorem (a=(1/2 * 8) b=the altitude c = 6).
When can the leg of an isosceles triangle be used as the height of the triangle?
Yes if the isosceles triangle is a right isosceles triangle because that leg opposite the hypotenuse is the height
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.
If a median of a triangle is also an altitude of a triangle then is the triangle isosceles?
Yes
Can the altitude from the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle be the median?
If the triangle is really isosceles, and it's not lying on one of the equal sides, then the altitude is always a median.
How do you draw an isosceles scalene triangle?
You cannot. An isosceles triangle cannot be scalene and a scalene triangle cannot be isosceles. So an isosceles scalene triangle cannot exist.
What is the median of an isosceles triangle is the same segment in the triangle?
Altitude APEXX
If is both the altitude and median of triangle ABC then triangle ABC is?
It is isosceles.
If is both the altitude and median of triangle ABC then triangle ABC is .?
It is isosceles.
What triangle has an altitude which is also a median and angle bisector?
An isosceles or an equilateral triangle perhaps?
What is the altitude of a right isosceles triangle with an altitude of 10?
I would hazard a guess and say it was 10.
How do you draw the altitudes of a triangle?
hoe can we draw an altitude
Can you draw a triangle with a line of symmetry?
Yes either an isosceles triangle or an equilateral triangle
Can the median and altitude of a triangle meet in the same line segment?
Yes, if the triangle is isosceles or equilateral.
In an isosceles triangle the altitude and median are?
B. The same segment. ~Ãpex
