Answer 1

Answer: The point of concurrency of the altitudes of a triangle is called the orthocenter .

Explanation:

We know that ,

Altitude of the triangle : A line that passes through any vertex of a triangle and is perpendicular to the opposite side .

Orthocenter : The point where all three altitudes of a triangle intersect .

The properties of orthocenter are as follows :

1. Orthocenter of acute triangle lies inside the triangle.
2. Orthocenter of right triangle lies on the triangle.
3. Orthocenter of obtuse triangle lies outside the triangle.

∴ The point of concurrency of the altitudes of a triangle is called the orthocenter .
