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.
What do you get if you cut an equilateral triangle in half along a line through one vertex?
A 30-60-90 right triangle
If a triangle has no obtuse angle then it is a right triangle?
It could be a right triangle if it has a right angle (90 degrees). If it does not have a right angle, then it is an acute triangle.
When you trisect a right angle you first construct what kind of triangle?
To trisect a right angle form an equilateral triangle with one vertex at the right angle and then bisect that angle of the equilateral triangle. (It is impossible to trisect a general angle using only compass and straight edge - the right angle is a specific exception.)
The length of three sides of the triangle are 4 feet 6 feet and 9 feet Is the triangle a right triangle?
A triangle with sides measuring ; 4 feet , 6 feet and 9 feet is a right triangle. A triangle is a right triangle as long as it has one 90 degree point.
