 Weekly Blog 11 This past week in geometry we learned all about points of concurrency in a triangle. A concurreny point is where 3 or more lines all intersect in one point. The four lines that have concurrency points are medians, altitudes, perpendicular bisectors, and altitudes. Each one has a specific name for its point of concurrency. Our teacher, Ms. Jovanovich, taught us this acronym to help us remember, MAPA COCI (where the M corresponds with the C). Here it is in action: Median- Centroid Altitude- Orthocenter Perpendicular bisector- Circumcenter Altitude- Incenter I hope this helps you, I know it sure helped me!
