Median and Altitude of a Triangle

Altitudes and Medians of Triangles

by Steven Giesting

​Objective

• ​Students will be able to define and identify altitudes and medians in triangles.

• They will also be able to identify the point of concurrency of altitudes and medians.

• ​They will use the properties of medians to find lengths in triangles.

​In the formula for the area of a triangle, the altitude is the height.
