It all depends. You've given us an incredibly vague question.

The outlier could be a number that's low or quite high. Also, outliers
shouldn't really contribute towards the value of the mean, median or 
range related to a group of data.

They are called outliers because they are bizarre results or numbers
and should be detached from groups of data. Outliers by definition
are abnormalities or anomalies.

I'd say outliers don't really change anything, unless you actually want
to give them credibility or weight.

Large outliers can inflate the value of means, medians and ranges.

Small outliers will invariably deflate the value of means and medians.

In triangle MNO shown below, segment NP is an altitude:
Effectus [21]

Answer:  C. Definition of an Altitude

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In triangle MNO shown below, segment NP is an altitude from the right angle.

Let ∠MNP=x

Then ∠PNO=90°-x

Therefore in triangle MNO,

∠MPN=∠NPO =90°  [by definition of Altitude]

[Definition of altitude : A line which passes through a vertex of a triangle, and joins the opposite side forming right angles. ]

Now using angle sum property in ΔMNP

∠MNP+∠MPN+∠PMN=180°

⇒x+90°+∠PMN=180°

⇒∠PMN=180°-90°-x

⇒∠PMN=90°-x

Now, in ΔMNO and ΔPNO

∠PMN=∠PNO=90°-x

and ∠MPN=∠NPO =90°  [by definition of altitude]

Therefore by AA similarity postulate, we have

ΔMNO ≈ ΔPNO
