A median of a triangle is a line segment joining the vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side. The medians ( each triangle has 3) always intersect at a point call the centroid and the centroid is always INSIDE the triangle.APEX: The incenter of a triangle ________ falls outside of its triangle. = neverA median of a triangle may fall outside the triangle? false apex!!!!!!!!
True for an obtuse triangle!
The orthocenter is the point where the altitudes of a triangle intersect. An orthocenter lies outside of a triangle only when the triangle is obtuse. If a triangle is acute, the orthocenter lies inside of the triangle.
the only way for a right triangle to have a line of symmetry, is if the legs of the triangle are congruent. Or you can show that both non-right angles are congruent (45 degrees). you may also prove that the altitude of the triangle bisects the hypotenuse or that it equals 1/2 of the hypotenuse.
No, since an equilateral triangle has three congruent angles of 60 degrees, and a right triangle must have an angle of 90 degrees. However, a right triangle may be an isosceles triangle.
False
The orthocenter of a triangle may lie outside the triangle because an altitude does not necessarily intersect the sides of the triangle.
A point outside the triangle may.
sides
The orthocenter may fall outside of a triangle. The orthocenter usually lies within the inside the triangle. However this is only the case if the triangle is acute.
false (apex)
orthocenter and circumcenter
The orthocenter of a triangle may lie outside the triangle since the ___altitude___ may not intersect any side of the triangle. * * * * * No. One of the altitudes must intersect the side opposite it and so it is not correct to say ANY side of the triangle.

The orthocenter is the point where the altitudes of a triangle intersect. An orthocenter lies outside of a triangle only when the triangle is obtuse. If a triangle is acute, the orthocenter lies inside of the triangle.
