Special Lines in Triangles: Bisectors, Medians, and Altitudes

  • What's a median? Or an altitude? They are special lines you can make with a triangle. And what's a circumcenter, or a centroid, or an orthocenter? These are some special points that relate to triangles. Not every geometry course covers this terminology, but it's super interesting, so take a look!

    I loved it when professor Dave went "it's geometrying time" and then geometried all over the place, truly one of the moments of all time.

    In center---- Angle bisector
    Centriod ---- Intersection of 3 median ( bisector for side drawn from opposite angle)
    Orthocenter---- Altitude (perpendicular line drawn from from opposite angle)
    Circumcenter----3 perpendicular bisector drawn

    This is excellent a perfect summary gioving all the facts to understand all 3, it moves quickly so you may need to pause or review. But it beats someone going on and on for 45 minutes and trying not to get bored and fast forward or skip. Like Joe Friday said, "Just the facts nothing but the facts"

    I actually just using ur video as a start point for learning something and as a summary of " did i already understand this?" Because somehow i should have learn in other resources to understand a whole 1 video and that's not ur fault, I'm gladly thank because u make these playlist so it can be my roadmap for math journey. Thanks professor dave ❤

    At 2:26, I would add/mention a few things.
    - I would add right angle symbols at those little pink segments of distance.
    - I would expand on "distance", explaining that the distance from two points is the length the segment connecting them, while the distance from a point to a line (or segment) is the perpendicular segment to that line that originates from that point. Thus the three sides of the triangle here are equidistant ("equal distance") from the incenter since these three pink segments of distance are of same length.
    Great video as always.

    Thank you very much for the compact explanation!
    Oh, btw. At 0:43, dont you mean isosceles triangle instead of right triangle?
    If the perpendicular bisector of the base interesects with the other 2 sides (and therefore ultimately is the altitude of the base), we know that the other 2 sides have the same lengths. Therefore it is definitely an isosceles triangle. But it does not necessarily have to have 90 degrees at the intersection and we cannot say for sure that it is a right triangle, right?

    • @ReimskyToussaint
      @ReimskyToussaint 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      And also at 3:26 I presume (as well as precising that this median would've been both an angle bisector and perpendicular bisector in that special case of an isosceles triangle)

      @Blacksoul444 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@teslauzair4539 from 00:34 on he says "...if the bisector also coincides with the other 2 sides, then these 2 sides must be equal (= iscosceles triangle), and we have a right triangle."
      But the interior angle at the intersection does not have to be 90 degrees. So it does not have to be a right isosceles triangle, it just is definitely an isosceles triangle.
