How might you use a perpendicular bisector or an angle bisector in your everyday life?

And why might the orthocenter be the hardest part of the triangle to identify and use for some people?

Answer:

angle bisectors are architecture, making quilts and even cakes. A line which cuts a line segment into two equal parts. perpendicular bisectors in real life are making bridges and tables, etc.

Answer:

Real life example : On a clock, the second hand in the middle of the hour hand and minute hand, is working as the angle bisector.

For a perpendicular bisectors, take two ends of a compass needle, with the long end on the North, the short end is pointing South, and the lines of East and West are on the left and right.

Orthocenter : The orthocenter is the point of intersection of the three altitudes of a triangle. It is the hardest part of the triangle to find because :

  • It can lie inside a triangle or outside the triangle as it depends on the type of type of the triangle whether it is acute or obtuse. So, in order to identify it we must first know the type of the triangle.
  • And secondly, the formula for finding orthocenter is quite complicated so it is the hardest part of the triangle to identify and use.
