Question

look at the diagram. which term describes \\( \overline { g i } \\)? median perpendicular bisector altitude angle bisector

Explanation:

A median of a triangle is a line segment that joins a vertex to the mid - point of the opposite side. In the given diagram, point \(I\) is the mid - point of side \(HF\) (as indicated by the equal markings on \(HI\) and \(IF\)), and \(GI\) connects vertex \(G\) to the mid - point \(I\) of side \(HF\). A perpendicular bisector would be perpendicular to \(HF\) (there is no indication of a right angle here). An altitude would be perpendicular to the opposite side (again, no right - angle indication). An angle bisector would split an angle at a vertex into two equal angles (no angle - splitting indication here).

Answer:

median
