What is the length of a perpendicular line drawn from one vertex to the opposite side?

The length of a perpendicular line drawn from one vertex to the opposite side of a triangle is known as the altitude. It varies depending on the type of triangle and the position of the vertex from which the altitude is drawn. The altitude can be calculated using the area of the triangle and the length of the base to which it is perpendicular. In general, the altitude is crucial for determining the triangle's area and properties.
