Chapter 5 Section 1
Learning Goal: Understand and Draw the concurrent points of a
Triangle
The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one. --
Elbert Hubbard

Points of Concurrency
When three or more lines intersect at a common point, the lines are called Concurrent Lines.
Their point of intersection is called the point of concurrency.Concurrent Lines Non-Concurrent Lines

Draw the Perpendicular Bisectors
Extend the line segments until they intersect
Their point of concurrency is
called the circumcenter
Draw a circle with center at the circumcenter and a
vertex as the radius of the circle
What do you
notice?

Draw the Angle BisectorsExtend the line segments
until they intersectTheir point of
concurrency is called the incenter
What do you
notice?
Draw a circle with center at the incenter and the
distance from the incenter to the side as the
radius of the circle

Draw the Median of the Triangle
Extend the line segments
until they intersect
Their point of concurrency is
called the centroid
The Centroid is the point of balance of
any triangle

Draw the Altitudes of the Triangle
Extend the line segments
until they intersect
Their point of concurrency is
called the orthocenter

Coordinate GeometryThe vertices of ΔABC are A(–2, 2), B(4, 4), and C(1, –2). Find the coordinates of the orthocenter of ΔABC.

Questions:
1. Will the P.O.C. always be inside the triangle?
2. If you distort the Triangle, do the Special Segments change?
3. Can you move the special segments by themselves?
