What is the perpendicular distance from the base of a quadrilateral to the opposite side?
the perpendicular distance from the base of a quadrilateral to the opposite side?
What is the center of mass of cone?
The centre of mass of a uniform solid cone is located at the at a distance h/4 from the base plane, where h is the height of the cone (the perpendicular distance of the vertex to the base plane). The result can be found by the equation. X =(1/M)∫ x dm
What is an orthocenter?
The orthocentre is a point within a triangle where the perpendicular of each vertex to its base intersect each other.
Is this True or false the angle bisector of the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is also the perpendicular bisector of the base?
True
What statement must be true about the two solid a pyramid and cone?
All these shapes have a vertex opposite its base.
What is the perpendicular distance from the base of a triangle to the opposite vertex?
That is the height of the triangle, the h in the formula a = 0.5b x h
Area for a triangle?
1/2 base x height where: base is one of the sides height is the perpendicular distance from the base side to the opposite vertex
How do you know which measurements are the base and the height of a triangle?
It does not matter. Any side can be the base. Then, the height is the perpendicular distance between that side and the opposite vertex.
What is the perpendicular distance from the base of a quadrilateral to the opposite side?
the perpendicular distance from the base of a quadrilateral to the opposite side?
What is a perpendicular height?
The perpendicular height extends from the vertex opposite the base to meet the base at a 90 degree angle.
Height of triangle?
The height of a triangle is the perpendicular distance measured from the chosen base (or base extension*) to its opposite vertex (or apex)+.* If any of the shorter sides of an obtuse triangle is chosen to be the base, an extension need to be drawn to this base so that a perpendicular can be constructed from the apex down to this base extension.There are three sides to a triangle, hence three possible bases. Each base will have a corresponding height that is measured from the opposite vertex or apex+.A vertex is the point when 2 sides of a figure intersect.(Read more: vertex)+ A triangle has 3 vertices. 2 vertices defines the length of the base. There remains one vertex that is not touching the base. This vertex is opposite to the base (or base extension) and it is referred to as the apex.
What is the opposite side of a parallelogram base from its shortest distance?
It is the perpendicular distance.
How do you find the altitude outside of a triangle?
The altitude of a triangle is the distance from the line containing the base to the vertex. Draw the base and continue on outside of the triangle. Measure perpendicular from that line to the vertex.
Is the base of a pyramid opposite the vertex?
Vertex
How do you find an area in a triangle?
Multiply the length of the base by the height and divide by 2. The base can be any of the three sides. The height is the perpendicular distance from a vertex not included on the side chosen as the base to the base (or if the triangle is obtuse, from the vertex to a line extending from the base)
Formula of area of triangle?
area = 1/2 x base x height The base of the triangle is any side (usually one horizontal at the bottom) and the height is the shortest distance from this side to the opposite vertex. The shortest distance is when a line drawn from the vertex meets the side at 90o (the perpendicular distance).
What is a perpendicular segment from a vertex to the base of a triangle called?
An Altitude.
