Question

the orthocenter of a triangle is the intersection of all three _ of the triangle. vertices sides medians altitudes 20 choose the correct answer. a segment that extends from the vertex of a triangle to the midpoint of the opposite side is called the _ of the triangle. vertex side median altitude

Explanation:

• For the first question:
• The orthocenter is defined as the intersection of the three altitudes of a triangle. Vertices are the corner - points, sides are the line - segments forming the triangle, and medians intersect at the centroid.
• For the second question:
• A median of a triangle is a segment that connects a vertex to the mid - point of the opposite side. A vertex is a single point, a side is a line - segment of the triangle, and an altitude is a perpendicular segment from a vertex to the opposite side (or its extension).

Answer:

1. D. altitudes
2. C. median
