False
The orthocenter of a triangle may lie outside the triangle because an altitude does not necessarily intersect the sides of the triangle.
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
A. A perpendicular line to one side of the triangle. ~Apex
A triangle may or may not be a regular polygon. Let's look into things.First, a triangle is a polygon. All triangles are polygons. To be a regular polygon, the polygon must have equal sides. If the triangle has sides of equal length, then that triangle is an equilateral triangle and a regular polygon. If the triangle doesn't have sides of equal length, then it isn't a regular polygon. But in any case, the triangle is a polygon.
A point outside the triangle may.
yes
The orthocenter may fall outside of a triangle. The orthocenter usually lies within the inside the triangle. However this is only the case if the triangle is acute.
False
false (apex)
A median of a triangle is a line segment joining the vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side. The medians ( each triangle has 3) always intersect at a point call the centroid and the centroid is always INSIDE the triangle.APEX: The incenter of a triangle ________ falls outside of its triangle. = neverA median of a triangle may fall outside the triangle? false apex!!!!!!!!
The orthocenter of a triangle may lie outside the triangle because an altitude does not necessarily intersect the sides of the triangle.
True for an obtuse triangle!
Not normally
The orthocenter is the point where the altitudes of a triangle intersect. An orthocenter lies outside of a triangle only when the triangle is obtuse. If a triangle is acute, the orthocenter lies inside 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.
