Special Lines in a Triangle by Triangle Head

“Special Lines in a Triangle” by Triangle Head A perpendicular bisector is a line found in a triangle It cuts the side into two equal parts And because it's perpendicular it makes two right angles r And if you draw all three of them Then you'll notice that they intersect We have a name for this special point We call it circumcenter it's a point that we enjoy r r CIRCUMCENTER

There are special lines in a triangle And each one of them has a special center Perpendicular and angle bisectors The medians and the altitudes 2 b c 2 a a 2 c b

An angle bisector cuts an angle in two And if you draw all three then they will intersect too This center has a name yea it's the incenter Don't worry if it's hard 'cause it will get easier INCENTER

The medians all start at a different vertex And to the opposite midpoint they do connect At the point of intersection is the centroid That's the third type of center yea now we are overjoyed CENTROID 2 c b a 2 a c 2 b

An altitude is a line that you draw From the vertex to the side opposite It makes right angles, it's perpendicular And where they intersect's the orthocenter ORTHOCENTER
