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.
