Orthocenter (A)

Applet contains a triangle with altitudes and lines containing altitudes drawn. Its purpose is to have students discover that the orthocenter of a triangle lies INSIDE the triangle IFF the triangle is acute, ON the triangle IFF the triangle is right (& at the vertex of the right angle), and OUTSIDE the triangle if the triangle is obtuse.
