2. Medians, Centroid, Altitudes and Orthocentre

  • The median of a triangle is the line joining the mid-point of a side with the opposite vertex.
  • A triangle has three medians.
  • The three medians are concurrent and meet at one point called the centroid.

3. Angle Sum, Exterior Angles and Corollaries

  • The sum of the angles of a triangle equals 180 degrees.
  • An exterior angle of a triangle equals the sum of the two interior opposite angles.
  • An exterior angle of a triangle is greater than each of the interior opposite angles.
