Right triangle and the midpoint of the side opposite that vertex. This is because the right triangle's orthocenter, the intersection of its altitudes, falls on the right-angled vertex while its circumcenter, the intersection of its perpendicular bisectors of sides, falls on the midpoint of the hypotenuse. In any right triangle the diameter of the incircle is less than half the hypotenuse, and more strongly it is less than or equal to the hypotenuse times formula_44 In a right triangle with legs "a", "b" and hypotenuse "c", with equality only in the isosceles case. If the altitude from the hypotenuse is denoted "h",
Medial triangle of "ABC": the parallel to "AB" through "C", the parallel to "AC" through "B", and the parallel to "BC" through "A". Trilinear coordinates for the vertices of the anticomplementary triangle, X'Y'Z', are given by The name "anticomplementary triangle" corresponds to the fact that its vertices are the anticomplements of the vertices A, B, C of the reference triangle. The vertices of the medial triangle are the complements of A, B, C. Medial triangle Each side of the medial triangle is called a "midsegment" (or "midline"). In general, a midsegment of a triangle is a line segment which joins the midpoints
