No, the angle bisector of a scalene triangle actually intersects at two points, the point between the two points and the vertex formed by two lines of a scalene triangle.

On an alternative interpretation of the question, the three angle bisectors of any triangle always intersect at a point which is called the incentre.

What does the perpindicular bisector of a triangle do at a single point?
Forms a 90 degree angle
Any triangle has what medians?
Any triangle has 3 medians Another answer (depending on what you are looking for) is that a triangle has concurrent medians (which means all three medians intersect at a single point).
What its it called when the angle bisectors of a triangle at a single point?
The point in which all the angle bisectors intersect is called the incenter.
What kinds of symmetry do an equilateral and an isosceles triangle have?
An equilateral triangle has six symmetries, and an isosceles triangle has two. An isosceles triangle has a single axis of symmetry, the perpendicular bisector of the non-congruent side. This is a reflection symmetry. An equilateral triangle has rotational symmetry as well as reflection symmetry. It is invariant under rotations by 120 degrees.
Can perpendicular lines intersect?
Yes, perpendicular lines do intersect at a single point. Think of the line representing the x-axis, and the line representing the y-axis. These two lines are perpendicular, and they intersect at the Origin (a single point).
Is the angle bisector of a scalene triangle ever intersect at a single point?
never
Will the medians of an obtuse triangle ever intersect on the triangle?
Yes. Medians always intersect in a single point, called the centroid, or geocenter.
What does the perpindicular bisector of a triangle do at a single point?
Forms a 90 degree angle
What is the angle bisector concurrency theorem?
the definition of an angle bisector is a line that divides an angle into two equal halves. So you need only invoke the definition to prove something is an angle bisector if you already know that the two angles are congruent.
Any triangle has what medians?
Any triangle has 3 medians Another answer (depending on what you are looking for) is that a triangle has concurrent medians (which means all three medians intersect at a single point).
What its it called when the angle bisectors of a triangle at a single point?
The point in which all the angle bisectors intersect is called the incenter.
Does a triangle have any lines of symmetry?
It will if isosceles or equilateral. The first will have a single line: the bases' perpendicular bisector produced through the apex. The second will have 3 in the same way.
What kinds of symmetry do an equilateral and an isosceles triangle have?
An equilateral triangle has six symmetries, and an isosceles triangle has two. An isosceles triangle has a single axis of symmetry, the perpendicular bisector of the non-congruent side. This is a reflection symmetry. An equilateral triangle has rotational symmetry as well as reflection symmetry. It is invariant under rotations by 120 degrees.
Does three points intersect at a single point?
No, only three lines can intersect at a single point.
If two lines intersect they intersect in an infinite number of ponits true or false?
false they intersect at a single point
What do two lines intersect at?
two lines intersect at a single point in a 2D space assuming they are not parallel. in 3D space they can intersect again at a single point, or an infinite amount of points.
Can perpendicular lines intersect?
Yes, perpendicular lines do intersect at a single point. Think of the line representing the x-axis, and the line representing the y-axis. These two lines are perpendicular, and they intersect at the Origin (a single point).
