The Orthocenter of a Triangle
< Go Back >
 
The orthocenter is the point at which the three altitudes of a triangle intersect.  The definition of the altitude of a triangle is a line that extends from one vertex of a triangle perpendicular to the opposite side. 

Use Geometer's Sketchpad and state a conjecture concerning possible locations of the orthoceneter.
