1 Points of Concurrency Triangles

2 Point of Concurrency- ________ or more lines (rays or segments) that intersect are called _____________. The point where they meet is called the “_______of concurrency” three concurrent point Concurrent lines Lines that are not concurrent

3 Circumcenter  made from perpendicular bisectors
Circumcenter– all three perpendicular bisectors of a triangle intersect to form a point called a circumcenter. Fact Equidistant from all three vertices

4 Incenter  made from Angle Bisectors
Incenter – all three angle bisectors of a triangle intersect to form a point called the incenter. Fact Equidistant to the sides Distance to sides is vertical

5 Centroid  made from medians
Centroid – all three medians of a triangle intersect to form a point called the centroid. Fact Vertex to Centroid: /3 total median Centroid to Midpoint: 1/3 total median

6 Orthocenter  made from altitudes
Orthocenter– all three altitudes of a triangle intersect to form a point called an orthocenter. Fact Orthocenter can be inside, outside, or on the right angle.
