Front

What is the definition of a median in a triangle?

Back

A segment from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side.

Front

What is the circumcenter of a triangle?

Back

The point where the perpendicular bisectors of the sides intersect, equidistant from the vertices.

Front

What is the relationship between the incenter and the sides of a triangle?

Front

What is the definition of a perpendicular bisector?

Back

A line that divides a segment into two equal parts at a right angle.

Front

What is the significance of the centroid in a triangle?

Back

The centroid is the point of concurrency of the medians and is the center of mass.
