Question

What is the difference between medians, perpendicular bisectors, and altitudes?

Answer 1

Difference between medians, perpendicular bisectors, and altitudes.

• Meridian is the segment joining a vertex to the mid-point of the opposite side
• Perpendicular from a vertex to opposite side is called altitude.
• A Line which passes through the mid-point of a segment and is perpendicular on the segment is called the perpendicular bisector of the segment.

In below figure of $∆ABC$, medians, perpendicular bisectors, and altitudes are mentioned.

Thus, their difference is that the perpendicular bisector must be ninety degrees, or it'll be a median.
