An altitude of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex of the triangle and is to the line containing the opposite side?
perpendicular
Which term describes a line segment that connects a vertex of a triangle to a point on the line containing the opposite side so the line segment is perpendicular to that line?
altitude
Is the altitude of a triangle is a segment whose endpoints are a vertex of a triangle and the midpoints of the side opposite the vertex?
Yes but only if it's an equilateral or an isosceles triangle otherwise it's the vertical perpendicular height
Is it possible for a segment to be a perpendicular bisector angle bisector median and altitude of a triangle?
Yes. If you have an isosceles triangle standing up on the unequal side, thenthe line segment from the top vertex perpendicular to the base is all of these.
What are secondary parts of a triangle in geometry?
A triangle is one of the basic shapes of geometry: a polygon with three corners or vertices and three sides or edges which are line segments. A triangle with vertices A, B, and C is denoted ABC.the secondary parts are at the bottom.the secondary parts of the trianglemedian - a segment whose endpoints are a vertex of the triangle and the midpoint of the opposite sideangle bisector - a segment which bisects an angle and whose endpoints are a vertex of the triangle and a point on the opposite sidealtitude - a segment from the vertex of the triangle perpendicular to the line containing the opposite sideperpendicular bisector - a line whose points are equidistant from the endpoints of the given side.incenter - the point of concurrency of the three angle bisectors of the trianglecentroid - the point of concurrency of the three medians of the triangleorthocenter - the point of concurrency of the three altitudes of the trianglecircumcenter - the point of concurrency of the three perpendicular bisectors of the sides of the triangle .by merivic lacaya and acefg123ZNNHS Student.

What is the perpendicular segment from one vertex of a triangle to the opposite side or the line that contains the opposite side?
Altitude.
What is a segment from a vertex of a triangle perpendicular to the opposite side of the triangle?
An altitude.
What is a perpendicular segment from a vertex of a triangle to the opposite side?
altitude of a triangle.
What is the altitude of a triangle?
A segment from the vertex of a triangle perpendicular to the line containing the opposite side
What is a segment that passes through of vertex and is perpendicular to the opposite side?
The segment that passes through a vertex and is perpendicular to the opposite side is called the altitude of the triangle.
A perpendicular segment with one endpoint at a vertex and the other endpoint on the side opposite that vertex?
Altitude: The altitude of a triangle is a perpendicular segment that connects a vertex and its opposite side. Let's construct the altitude of a triangle using a new triangle.
