Good Luck!​

Quick Special Lines of Triangle Review

Test Grade - 1st attempt graded only​

Multiple Choice

The CENTROID is the intersection of which special segments?

• Angle Bisectors

• Perpendicular Bisectors

• Medians

• Altitudes

​What is a CENTROID?

​Medians will only BISECT each side.

​

​When they meet, you get the CENTROID.

Multiple Choice

The ORTHOCENTER is the intersection of which special segments?

• Angle Bisectors

• Perpendicular Bisectors

• Medians

• Altitudes

​What is an ORTHOCENTER?

​Altitudes are ONLY PERPENDICULAR.

​

​The altitudes are the HIEGHT of the triangle.

​

​They meet at the ORTHOCENTER.

Multiple Choice

The INCENTER is the intersection of which special segments?

• Angle Bisectors

• Perpendicular Bisectors

• Medians

• Altitudes

​What is an INCENTER?

​Each dashed line is an ANGLE BISECTOR. It only cuts the ANGLE.

​

​They all meet at the INCENTER.

​

​Notice: The circle is INside.

Multiple Choice

The CIRCUMCENTER is the intersection of which special segments?

• Angle Bisectors

• Perpendicular Bisectors

• Medians

• Altitudes

​What is a CIRCUMCENTER?

​This is created by the 3 perpendicular bisectors.

​

​Notice: Each vertex of the triangle is EQUIDISTANT from the circumcenter.

​

Why is that?! They are the RADIUS of the outside circle!

Show me what you really know!
