Step-by-step explanation:
MEDIAN
median of a triangle is a line segment joining a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side, thus bisecting that side. Every triangle has exactly three medians, one from each vertex, and they all intersect each other at the triangle's centroid.
ALTITUDE
an altitude of a triangle is a line segment through a vertex and perpendicular to (i.e., forming a right angle with) a line containing the base (the side opposite the vertex). ... The length of the altitude, often simply called "the altitude", is the distance between the extended base and the vertex.
