The orthocenter of a triangle may lie outside the triangle since the altitude may not intersect any side of the triangle?
The orthocenter of a triangle may lie outside the triangle because an altitude does not necessarily intersect the sides of the triangle.
Which statement about an altitude of a triangle is always true?
Well, isn't that a happy little question! The altitude of a triangle is always perpendicular to the base it intersects. It's like a little friend that helps the triangle stand tall and proud. Just remember, in the world of triangles, altitudes are always there to lend a hand and make everything more balanced and beautiful.
What is any perpendicular segment connecting a vertex to an opposite side?
In geometry, a perpendicular segment that connects a vertex to its opposite side is the altitude of a triangle. Triangles have three altitudes, according to this definition for altitude.
What is right triangle geometry?
A right triangle in geometry is a triangle that has 90 degrees as one of its angles.
The orthocenter of a triangle may lie outside the triangle because the altitude does not necessairly intersect the?
My daughter's math teacher recommended the following site, which was enormously helpful for her. Here's a link to the 'orthocenter' topic, and you can find a bunch of other math topic videos there. It is all free. Hope it will help.http://www.brightstorm.com/d/math/s/geometry/u/constructions/t/constructing-the-orthocenter

In geometry what do you call the intersection among the altitude of a triangle?
Such a point is called the orthocenter. Even the fact that all three altitudes intersect at a point is quite interesting because only two lines are guaranteed to intersect at a point, but we have three.
How do you make a model of median and altitude of a triangle?
median intersect each other at a point inside triangle and altitude intrsect eachother at apoint outside triangle
The orthocenter of a triangle may lie outside the triangle because the altitude does not necessairly intersect the of the triangle?
The orthocenter of a triangle may lie outside the triangle since the ___altitude___ may not intersect any side of the triangle. * * * * * No. One of the altitudes must intersect the side opposite it and so it is not correct to say ANY side of the triangle.
Does the altitude of a triangle always intersect inside the triangle?
No. Not if the triangle is right angled (the intersection is AT the right vertex) or obtuse angled (intersection outside).
Where can the lines contain the altitude of an obtuse triangle intersect?
They can only intersect at the circumcentre, which is a point outside the triangle, beyond the side opposite the obtuse angle.
Which term describes the point where the three angle bisector of a triangle intersect?
The point where the three angle bisectors of a triangle intersect is called the incenter. This point is equidistant from all three sides of the triangle and serves as the center of the triangle's incircle, which is the circle inscribed within the triangle. The incenter is significant in triangle geometry and is always located inside the triangle.
Where does two lines intersect in geometry?
If they do intersect, it will be at their point of intersection.

Lines that contain the altitudes of a triangle?
The altitudes of a triangle are the segments drawn from each vertex perpendicular to the opposite side. These lines intersect at a point called the orthocenter, which can lie inside the triangle for acute triangles, on the vertex for right triangles, and outside for obtuse triangles. Each altitude represents the height of the triangle from that vertex, contributing to the calculation of the triangle's area. The altitudes can be constructed using geometric methods or calculated using coordinate geometry.
What is the orthocenter of a triangle?
The orthocenter of a triangle is the point where the three altitudes of the triangle intersect. An altitude extends from a vertex (i.e. corner of the triangle) to the side opposite of it, and is perpendicular either to the side of the triangle, or to its extension. The three altitudes of a triangle are always concurrent (intersect at the same point). This point is known as the orthocenter, and always falls on the Euler Line with the centroid, circumcenter, and the center of the triangle's nine-point circle.
