Orthocenter y for Triangle (0,0),(b,0),(u,v) Calculator
Orthocenter y for Triangle (0,0),(b,0),(u,v). Example: Base: 6 m, U: 3 m, V: 4 m gives 2.25 m. Real bounded inputs with supplied units; numerical selected result only. Original useful product scope; historical catalog title does not grant missing modes or source parity.
Real bounded inputs with supplied units; numerical selected result only. Original useful product scope; historical catalog title does not grant missing modes or source parity. Derivation: Altitude from top vertex is vertical x=u; altitude from origin is perpendicular to opposite side.
Accepted inputs: Base: 0.1 to 1,000 m; U: -1,000 to 1,000 m; V: 0.1 to 1,000 m.
How the calculation works
Hx=u; Hy=u(b-u)/v
Worked example
With base 6 m, u 3 m, v 4 m, orthocenter y for triangle (0,0),(b,0),(u,v) is 2.25 m.
