x-coordinate of the orthocenter H

Orthocenter y2
Triangle typeAcute
Area12sq units
Perimeter16.129units
H locationInside the triangle

Orthocenter H = (2.0000, 2.0000)

  • The triangle is acute, so the orthocenter is inside the triangle.
  • All three altitudes meet inside the triangle because every interior angle is less than 90 degrees.
  • The triangle has an area of 12.0000 square units and a perimeter of 16.1290 units.

Next stepYou can verify the result by computing the third altitude independently and confirming that it also passes through H. The altitude from vertex C to side AB should satisfy the equation y = slope * (x - x3) + y3.
