Study Notes
- There are four noteworthy points in a triangle
Barycenter
- It is the intersection point of the medians, which are line segments connecting each vertex with the midpoint of the opposite side
- It is also the center of gravity of the triangle
Circumcenter
- Intersection point of the axes, specifically the perpendicular lines to the sides passing through their midpoints
- It is the center of the circumscribed circle of the triangle, passing through all three vertices
Incenter
- It is the meeting point of the bisectors, which are the rays dividing each angle into two equal parts
- It represents the center of the inscribed circle within the triangle, tangent to all three sides
Orthocenter
- It is the intersection point of the altitudes, the perpendicular segments drawn from each vertex to the opposite side
