The altitude is the segment from an angle of a triangle to the side opposite of the angle which is intersected perpendicularly by the altitude., the angle bisector cuts an angle into two congruent angles, and a median forms two congruent line segments.

What median of an isosceles triangle is the same segment in the triangle as the leg bisector hypotenuse altitude?
It is the median which divides the side which is not one of the equal sides.
What is the difference between a median and the altitude of a triangle?
A median of a triangle is a line segment joining a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side. Altitude of a triangle is a straight line through a vertex and perpendicular to the opposite side or an extension of the opposite side.
Is the angle bisector also the median in an equilateral triangle?
No. The angle bisector is a line. Where the three lines meet is the median. In an equilateral triangle the INTERSECTION of the angle bisectors is the median.
In geometry what do you call the intersection among the median?
point of concurrency
What is a real life example of a segment bisector?
A real life example of a segment bisector is a median of a road. A median is the physical barrier that divides two lanes of traffic heading in opposite directions. The median bisects the road meaning it divides the road into two equal parts. It is the perpendicular bisector of the segment formed by the two lanes of traffic.
What triangle has an altitude which is also a median and angle bisector?
An isosceles or an equilateral triangle perhaps?
What median of an isosceles triangle is the same segment in the triangle as the leg bisector hypotenuse altitude?
It is the median which divides the side which is not one of the equal sides.
Is this true If a median an altitude and an angle bisector are the same segment in a triangle the triangle is scalene?
No, it's not true.
What are the difference between perpendicular lines and a perpendicular bisector?
A perpendicular bisector goes through the median of the line while a perpendicular line can be anywhere on the line as long as it is at a 90 degree angle.
What are the 4 particular lines for a triangle?
Maybe they are bisector, median, altitude and the middle perpendicular. (I hope I put it in English right :)
Can a median be an angle bisector and not a perpendicular bisector?
Yes.
What is one difference between an altitude and a median of a triangle?
An altitude is a perpendicular drawn from a point to the opposite segment while a median is a segment drawn from a point to the opposite side such that it bisects the side.Altitudes and their concurrenceMedians and their concurrence
Is it possible for a segment to be a perpendicular bisector angle bisector median and altitude of a triangle?
Yes. If you have an isosceles triangle standing up on the unequal side, thenthe line segment from the top vertex perpendicular to the base is all of these.

No. The angle bisector is a line. Where the three lines meet is the median. In an equilateral triangle the INTERSECTION of the angle bisectors is the median.
Could the median of a triangle be the perpendicular bisector?
Yes in equilateral triangle.
