Q. Which term describes the point where the three medians of a triangle intersect apex?
A point at which three altitudes of a triangle meet is known as orthocenter. When all the three medians of a triangle intersect each other then the point is known as centroid.
Q. What are two names for the point where the three medians intersect?
Medians of a Triangle The point of intersection of all three medians is called the centroid of the triangle.

Q. What is the point of concurrence of the medians of a triangle?
The point of concurrency is called the orthocenter. The three medians of the triangle are concurrent. The point of concurrency is called the centroid.
Q. Is Orthocentre and centroid same?
The centroid of a triangle is the point at which the three medians meet. The orthocenter is the point of intersection of the altitudes of the triangle, that is, the perpendicular lines between each vertex and the opposite side.
Q. How do you find the Orthocenter of a straight line?
Orthocenter Formula – Orthocenter of a Triangle Formulas
- First, we will find the slopes of any two sides of the triangle (say AC and BC).
- Next, we will use the slope-point form of the equation of a straight line to find the equations of the lines that are coincident with the altitudes BE and AD.
Q. What is the Orthocenter of a triangle with given vertices?
Steps Involved in Finding Orthocenter of a Triangle : Find the equations of two line segments forming sides of the triangle. Use the slopes and the opposite vertices to find the equations of the two altitudes. Solve the corresponding x and y values, giving you the coordinates of the orthocenter.
Q. How do you find the Orthocenter on a calculator?
The procedure to use the orthocenter calculator is as follows:
- Step 1: Enter the three coordinates of a triangle in the input field.
- Step 2: Now click the button “Calculate Orthocenter” to get the result.
- Step 3: Finally, the orthocenter of a triangle will be displayed in the new window.
Q. What is the orthocenter of the triangle with two altitudes?
The intersection point of any two altitudes of a triangle gives the orthocenter. Thus, find the point of intersection of the two altitudes. At that point, H is referred to as the orthocenter of the triangle.
Q. How do you find the centroid of a curve?
Centroid of a Curve
- Find the length of the curve: L = /int/, dL , where dL is the arclength parameter, dL=/sqrt {/left(/frac{dx}{dt}/right)^2 +/left(/frac{dy}{dt}/right)^2}/,dt .
- Find the x-coordinate of the centroid: /bar x= /displaystyle /frac 1 L /int_0^1 x /sqrt { 1 + 9x^4} /, dx .
