They can only intersect at the circumcentre, which is a point outside the triangle, beyond the side opposite the obtuse angle.

Which term best describes the point where the three altitude of a triangle intersect?

The point where the three altitudes of a triangle intersect is called the "orthocenter." It can be located inside the triangle for acute triangles, on the triangle for right triangles, and outside the triangle for obtuse triangles. The orthocenter is one of the triangle's key points, along with the centroid and circumcenter.
