How many altitudes does a triangle have?
3 altitudes.
The point where the altitudes of the triangle intersect?
the point where the altitudes intersect is called the orthocenter.
Are the legs of a right triangle called altitudes?
Although they are altitudes, they are normally called the legs.
Is it possible to sketch a triangle in which exactly one of the altitudes is outside the triangle?
no; a triangle must have an obtuse angle if one of its altitudes is outside of the triangle, and in this case 2 of the altitudes are out of the triangle.
Does every triangle have three altitudes?
Yes, except that with a right angled triangle, two of the altitudes will also be the sides of the triangle.
How many altitudes does a triangle have?
3 altitudes.
Why ice melts slowly at higher altitudes?
Ice melts more slowly at higher altitudes because the air is thinner and therefore there is less pressure pushing down on the ice, reducing the rate of melting. Additionally, colder temperatures are typically experienced at higher altitudes which also slows down the melting process.
Examples of scientific altitudes and values?
Assuming you mean "attitudes", not "altitudes". Some examples of scientific attitudes include: - curiosity - open-mindedness - values logic and rationality - persistence Above all, scientists value "truth".
Why do jet airplanes fly at high altitudes?
Jet airplanes fly at high altitudes because it is more fuel efficient. Flying at higher altitudes uses less fuel than flying at lower altitudes.
Compare taiga altitudes and other biome altitudes?
walay claro ang answer
Cirrus clouds appear at low to high altitudes?
just high altitudes
What happens to density at higher altitudes?
Density decreases at higher altitudes because the air pressure decreases with increasing altitude. As air pressure decreases, the distance between air molecules increases, resulting in lower density.
The point where the altitudes of the triangle intersect?
the point where the altitudes intersect is called the orthocenter.
What is the difference between the lifestyle of people living in high altitudes and low altitudes?
People living in high altitudes may have adaptations to lower oxygen levels, such as increased lung capacity and red blood cell production. They may also have different cultural practices related to agriculture and outdoor activities. In contrast, people in low altitudes may have easier access to resources and infrastructure, leading to potentially different dietary habits and lifestyle choices.
What is a sentence for the word altitudes?
Cloud structures vary at different altitudes due to different levels of air pressure. There are several scientifically recognized altitudes of atmosphere.
What altitudes does the layer troposphere span?
The altitudes the layer troposphere span is 0m-12km.
What altitudes and mach numbers is the yaw damper most critical?
At high speeds and altitudes
