How did the orthocenter of a triangle get its name? - Answers

Oh, dude, the orthocenter of a triangle got its name because it's where the altitudes of the triangle intersect. It's like the center of gravity for altitudes, you know? So, "ortho" means perpendicular in Greek, and since the altitudes are perpendicular to the sides of the triangle, they just called it the orthocenter. Cool, right?
