Placing a Fire Hydrant
Triangle centers and the segments that create them easily become an exercise in memorization, without the help of engaging applications like this lesson. Here the class investigates the measure of center that is equidistant to the three...

Texas Instruments: The Orthocenter of a Triangle
Students understand that the orthocenter is the point of concurrence of the three altitudes of a triangle. They construct circumcircles and Feuerbach circles and determine the relationship between them.
