It is the perpendicular bisector
The segment that passes through a vertex and is perpendicular to the opposite side is called the altitude of the triangle.
equilateral triangles
Sometimes. If the triangle is an equilateral triangle, then yes. If the triangle has two sides of equal length, then the bisector passing through the point connecting the two sides of equal length will share the orthocenter. If all three sides have different lengths, then none of the bisectors of a triangle will share (pass through) the orthcenter.The definition of the orthocenter is:The point where the three altitudes of a triangle intersect. (An altitude is the linefrom a vertex drawn perpendicular to the opposite side.) So an angle bisectordoesn't pass through the orthocenter unless the angle bisector happens tocoincide with the altitude, and that only happens when the triangle is eitherisosceles or equilateral.
The distance will be length of the line divided by 2 because the perpendicular bisector cuts through the line at its centre and at right angles
Perpendicular bisector.
a line that intersects an edge of a triangle that is perpendicular to it and passes through the midpoint
It is the perpendicular bisector
If you perform an angle bisector on an angle in a triangle, then it will go through the midpoint of the opposite side.
and is perpendicular to the opposite side.
The segment that passes through a vertex and is perpendicular to the opposite side is called the altitude of the triangle.
The perpendicular bisector of a line segment AB is the straight line perpendicular to AB through the midpoint of AB.
Equilateral triangles
A perpendicular bisector is a line that cuts through another line at 90 degrees
equilateral triangles
A perpendicular bisector goes through the median of the line while a perpendicular line can be anywhere on the line as long as it is at a 90 degree angle.
