3Orthocenter of a Triangle
- The point of intersection of the altitudes of a
triangle is called the orthocenter. - In the figure, AD, BE, and CF are the altitudes
drawn from the vertices A, B, and C respectively.
The point of intersection of these altitudes is
H. So, H is the orthocenter of triangle ABC.
4Orthocenter of an Obtuse Triangle
- Orthocenter of an obtuse triangle
- lies outside the triangle.
5Orthocenter of an Acute Triangle
- Orthocenter of an acute triangle lies inside the
triangle.
6Orthocenter of a Right Triangle
- Orthocenter of a right triangle lies on the
triangle.

13NotesSect.7.2 The Pythagorean Theorem and its
Converse
- In a right triangle, a² b² c², where a and b
are the lengths of the legs of the triangle and c
is the length of the its hypotenuse.
c

b
14Example 1 of Sect.7.2
- Find the length of the hypotenuse of ?ABC.
- Solution
c
15Pythagorean Triple
- A Pythagorean triple is a set of nonzero whole
numbers a,b, and c that satisfy the equation a²
b² c². - Example 3,4,5
- 3² 4² 5² 9 16 25
- Nonexample 2,3,4
- 2² 3² ? 4² 4 9 ? 16
- 2² 3² 13 0R
16Example 1 of Sect.7.2
- Do the length of ?ABC form a Pythagorean triple?
- Solution Since c 29,
- the lengths of the sides 20,
- 21, and 29 form a Pythagorean
- triple because they are whole
- numbers that satisfy a² b² c².
c

to each other, and the hypotenuse is times
the length of a leg. - Hypotenuse leg
