What do we call lines that intersect and form right angles?
The lines that intersect to Form A right triangle are called Perpendicular Lines; the resulting meeting point of these two lines is called the vertex of the angle.
Where is the orthocenter of a right triangle located?
When the triangle is right, the orthocenter is the polygon vertex of the right angle. Intuitively this makes sense because the orthocenter is where the altitudes intersect. Hence, in a right triangle, the vertex of the right angle is where you would expect the altitudes to meet, at 90 degrees, where the legs of the right triangle are perpendicular.
What are Two lines that intersect and form a right angle are called?
When two lines intersect to form a right angle they are called perpendicular.
How many pairs of perpendicular lines does an isosceles triangle have?
There can be only one pair of perpendicular lines in an isosceles triangle when it is a right angled isosceles triangle. A non right angled isosceles triangle has no pairs of perpendicular lines.
Two lines or planes that intersect to form a right angle?
Perpendicular
Do the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle always sometimes or never intersect on the triangle?
The perpendicular bisectors only intersect on the triangle when it is an isosceles right triangle.
What kind of triangle do the perpendicular bisectors intersect in a point outside the triangle?
a right triange
Will the perpendicular bisectors of a right triangle always intersect?
yes, because perpendicular lines always intersect. all lines intersect unless they are parallel or on separate planes (skew)
Can an angle bisector of a triangle always intersect inside the triangle?
The angle bisectors always intersect inside the triangle. (This is not true for altitudes and right bisectors.)
The perpendicular bisectors of a triangle are lines or segments that intersect the sides at right angles and divide each of them into two parts of length?
Congruent (APEX) :P
What is the name of the point at which all of the triangle's perpendicular bisectors intersect?
Circumcenter, this is the center-point of a circle circumscribed around the triangle. If the triangle is obtuse, then this point is outside the triangle and if the triangle is a right triangle, then the point is the midpoint of the hypotenuse.
What are perpendicular bisectors of a triangle?
It is only applicable to a right angle triangle where the perpendicular lines meet at 90 degrees
What are lines that intersect to form a right triangle?
Perpendicular lines intersect at right angles.
What is the term for the point where the perpendicular bisectors in a triangle meet?
They meet at right angles
Are the diagonals of a square perpendicular bisectors?
The diagonals of a square are perpendicular (they intersect and form right angles). But they are angles bisectors since they bisect each pair of opposite angles. A perpendicular bisector actually bisects a side of a figure.
Where do Perpendicular bisectors intersect?
At a perfect right angle adjacent to the line and exactly half way along the line.
How many perpendicular lines on a right angle triangle?
The 2 perpendicular sides of a right angle triangle intersect each other at right angles
