What's the connection?
Using the diagram below, explore the relationship between the orthocenter, circumcenter and centroid of a triangle.
- The ORTHOCENTER is the point at which the ALTITUDES of a triangle meet.
- The CIRCUMCENTER is where the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle meet.
- The CENTROID is where the medians of a triangle meet.
- The INCENTER is where the angle bisectors of a triangle meet.
