Question

1. generalize for any right triangle, where is the orthocenter located? mp.8

Explanation:

The orthocenter is the point where the three altitudes of a triangle intersect. In a right - triangle, two of the altitudes are the legs of the triangle. The third altitude (from the right - angle vertex to the hypotenuse) also passes through the right - angle vertex. So, all three altitudes intersect at the right - angle vertex.

Answer:

The orthocenter of a right triangle is located at the vertex of the right angle.
