A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and bisects the side the vertex?
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and bisects the side of the triangle opposite the vertex.
What triangle has to lines of symmetry?
If you mean which triangle has at least two lines of symmetry, I can answer your question: an equilateral triangle has three lines of symmetry-- one passing through the center of each side and through the opposite point, perpendicular to the side.
What is a cross section of a cube?
It depends on the angle of the plane of the cross section. If it is parallel to the cube's face (or equivalently, two adjacent edges) the cross section will be a square congruent to the face. If the plane is parallel to just one edge (and so angled to a face), the cross section will be a rectangle which will have a constant width. Its length will increase, remain at a maximum level and then decrease. If neither, it will be a hexagon-triangle-hexagon-triangle-hexagon (triangles when passing through a vertex).
What does diameter mean in math terms?
A line that bisects a circle and goes through the center of it is the diameter.
What is the proof that an angle bisector actually bisects an angle?
In general 'to bisect' something means to cut it into two equal parts. The 'bisector' is the thing doing the cutting.In an angle bisector, it is a line passing through the vertex of the angle that cuts it into two equal smaller angles.Therefore it's in the definition.
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and bisects the side the vertex?
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and bisects the side of the triangle opposite the vertex.
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and bisects the opposite that vertex?
side
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and the side opposite that vertex?
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and the midpoint of the side opposite that vertex. The median only bisects the vertex angle from which it is drawn when it is an isosceles triangle.
What direction does a focal ray from an object proceed after passing through a diverging lens?
Parallel to the principal axis
What are facts about concave lenses?
a lens such that a parallel beam of light passing through it is caused to diverge or spread out
What will happen if the reading of ammeter a2 after passing through 30 ohm resistance if reading of a1 is 3A after passing through 20 ohm resistance if both are parallel to each other?
5 A
What is proportionality theorem?
Given a triangle and a line, if the line passes through two sides of the triangle parallel to the third side, then it cuts the sides proportionally.l
What triangle has to lines of symmetry?
If you mean which triangle has at least two lines of symmetry, I can answer your question: an equilateral triangle has three lines of symmetry-- one passing through the center of each side and through the opposite point, perpendicular to the side.
What is a line parallel to y-x - 3 and passes through -13?
If you mean: y = -x-3 passing through point of (-1, 3) Then the equation of the parallel line is: y =-x+2
What passes through a vertex and bisects the side opposite?
vector
Does a parallelogram have adjacent sides equal?
A parallelogram has adjacent equal sides. Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other,Opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and will never intersect. The area of a parallelogram is twice the area of a triangle created by one of its diagonals. Any line through the midpoint of a parallelogram bisects the area.
Which is an equation of the line parallel to y 6x - 4 and passing through -3 -8?
If you mean: y = 6x-4 then the parallel equation is y = 6x+10
