Nezavi [6.7K]3 years ago

Answer: All three of the altitudes lie entirely outside the triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The orthocenter is the center of the triangle formed by creating all the altitudes of each side.  

The altitude of a triangle is formed by creating a line from each vertex that is perpendicular to the opposite side.  

In acute traingle , the orthocenter lies inside it.

In right angled triangle, the orthocenter lies on the triangle.

In obtuse triangle , the orthocenter lies outside the triangle because all the three altitudes meet outside .

So, the best explains why the orthocenter of an obtuse triangle is outside the triangle : All three of the altitudes lie entirely outside the triangle.

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

8 1/8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Jerry played with 3 friends today, all at different times.

Tommy = 1 7/8 hours

Nathan = 1 3/4 hours

Chris = 3 3/2 hours

How many hours did Jerry play with his 3 friends today?

Number of hours Jerry play with his 3 friends today = 1 7/8 + 1 3/4 + 3 3/2

= 15/8 + 7/4 + 9/2

= (15+14+36)/8

= 65/8

= 8 1/8 hours
