A line connecting a vertex of a scalene triangle with the midpoint of the opposite side is a ...?
A segment that joins a vertex of a triangle and the midpoint of the side opposite that vertex is called a median. The three medians are concurrent at the centroid (the point of their intersection, and it is two-thirds of the way down each median. For example, if the three medians AA', BB', and CC' of the triangle ABC, intersect at G, then AG = 2GA', BG = 2BG', and CG = 2CG')

What is a of a triangle is a segment joining a vertix and the midpoint of the side opposite the vertex?
This line is called the bisector (German Halbierende, Dutch bissectrice, Swedish bisektris).In an isosceles triangle the bisector of the side opposite the unequal angle is also perpendicular to that side.In an equilateral triangle all bisectors are perpendicular to the opposite sides.The point in which all bisectors meet in a triangle is called its barycenter (English from Greek meaning "center of gravity") and if the triangle were made of a homogeneous material of infinitesimal height (that is, if it were two-dimensional) it would be indeed its center of gravity.

What is a line perpendicular to a segment at the segment's midpoint?
It's called a perpendicular bisector of the line segment.
In a triangle a segment from the vertex of a triangle perpendicular to the opposite side is called?
The hypotenuse. It is used to measure height. Very simple equation.

What is a point on a segment that is halfway between the two endpoints?
A point on a segment that is halfway between the two endpoints is called the midpoint of the segment. It is the point that divides the segment into two equal parts.
