The following applications may take some time to load depending on connection speed. Please wait. ALTITUDE OF A TRIANGLEAn altitude of a triangle is a line segment that joins the vertex of the triangle with the opposite side and perpendicular to the side.The three altitudes of any triangle are concurrent at the orthocenter H.MEDIAN OF A TRIANGLEA median of a triangle is a line segment that joins the vertex of the triangle with the midpoint of the opposite side. The three medians of any triangle are concurrent, meeting in the triangle centroid G.ANGLE BISECTOR OF A TRIANGLEThe angle bisector of a triangle is a line or line segment that divides the angle into two equal parts. The angle bisectors of a triangle are concurrent and the point of concurrency is the incenter of the triangle.PERPENDICULAR BISECTORS OF A TRIANGLEThe perpendicular bisectors of a triangle are lines passing through the midpoint of each side which are perpendicular to the given side. A triangle's three perpendicular bisectors meet at a point known as the circumcenter, which is also the center of the triangle's circumcircle. You can investigate the applications by moving the empty squared points.
