Medians, Altitudes and Perpendicular Bisectors

A perpendicular bisector is a line found in a triangle CIRCUMCENTER It cuts the side into two equal parts And because it's perpendicular it makes two.

 Definition:  A line that passes through the midpoint of the side of a triangle and is perpendicular to that side.

4.4 Altitudes, Medians, and Perpendicular Bisectors Date:________________

ALTITUDES - A perpendicular segment from a vertex to the line containing the opposite side…(right angle) There are three in a Triangle *Notice how all three altitudes cross

Median - a segment from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side…(not right angle most of the time) There are three in a Triangle *Notice how all three medians cross

Perpendicular Bisectors - a segment that is Perpendicular to another segment and goes through its midpoint…(in a triangle it would be both a median and an altitude) There are three in a equilateral Triangle. *Notice how all three medians cross
