The altitude of a triangle is a line segment from one vertex of a triangle to the opposite side so that the line segment is PERPENDICULAR to the side. Look at the pictures. In other words, (1) it starts at a vertex and ;

The distance between a vertex of a triangle and the opposite side. Formally, the shortest line segment between a vertex of a triangle and the (possibly extended) opposite side. Altitude also refers to the length of this segment.

Right Triangle Altitude Theorem Part a: The measure of the altitude drawn from the vertex of the right angle of a right triangle to its hypotenuse is the geometric mean between the measures of the two segments of the hypotenuse.

Altitude of a Triangle; The altitude of a triangle is the line segment drawn from a vertex, perpendicular to the other side. In figure 4-10, PS ⊥ QR from the vertex P to the side QR. Therefore, PS is the altitude of the triangle.

There's yet another interesting "center" of the triangle, the orthocenter. An altitude of the triangle is a line drawn through a vertex perpendicular to the side of the triangle opposite the vertex.
