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.
