What triangle has an altitude which is also a median and angle bisector?
An isosceles or an equilateral triangle perhaps?
What is hypotenuse in an isosceles triangle?
Only a right triangle has a hypotenuse. An isosceles triangle can be a right triangle but it doesn't have to be. If it's not, then it doesn't have a hypotenuse.
Is the altitude of an isosceles triangle the angle bisector of the vertex?
Yes, provided that the base is not one of the 2 equal sides. And it's also the perpendicular bisector of the base.
What are 2 properties of an isosceles triangle?
-- An isosceles triangle has two equal sides. -- An isosceles triangle has two equal angles. -- An isosceles triangle has two equal interior-angle bisectors. -- The bisector of the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is also the perpendicular bisector of the triangle's base.
Is a perpendicular bisector always an angle bisector?
thank goodness for my math teacher, norm! he said only in an isosceles triangle. The bisector of the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is perpendicular to the base! =)
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.
How you can draw a altitude with isosceles triangle?
The altitude line is perpendicular to the base and bisects the apex of the isosceles triangle.
What triangle must always have at least one angle bisector that is also a perpendicular bisector?
any isosceles triangle
Is the altitude of a triangle always the perpendicular bisector?
No.
Can an altitude be a perpendicular bisector?
Yes - the altitude of an equilateral triangle is perpendicular to the side chosen as the base and bisects that side and the opposite angle. Also, the altitude of an isosceles triangle when measured from the third side (the side that is not equal to the other two sides) is a perpendicular bisector of the base and also bisects the opposite angle.
When can the leg of an isosceles triangle be used as the height of the triangle?
Yes if the isosceles triangle is a right isosceles triangle because that leg opposite the hypotenuse is the height
Can the angle bisector of a triangle also be the perpendicular bisector?
Yes. The bisector of one angle of a triangle is the perpendicular bisector of theopposite side if the bisected angle is the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle,or any angle of an equilateral triangle.
