Orthocenter Exploration

1. Now that you have some measurements, make a conjecture about orthocenters. 2. Test your conjecture by moving the vertices to form several different triangles. Is your conjecture true? If not, how would you change your conjecture? 3. Is the orthocenter always inside the triangle? Using previous knowledge of the altitudes of triangles, explain why the answer is yes or no. 4. How would you summarize the lesson about orthocenters to a fellow student?
