3. The definition of an Altitude of a triangle is a line segment from one vertex perpendicular to the line containing the opposite side. There are 3 altitudes for any triangle. The 3 altitudes of a triangle meet at a single point, called the orthocenter. This point could be inside, outside or on the triangle. (note: the perpendicular segment (altitude) might not bisect the opposite segment at a midpoint) Construct all three altitudes for each of the given triangles. Show all appropriate construction markings. Bring these constructions to class to help answer three questions on the In-class part of the test. 7
