This example illustrates the relationship between the orthocenter and circumcenter of a triangle. Key mathematical concepts include the orthocenter and circumcenter of a triangle. Using GeoGebra commands such as Polygon, Circle, OrthogonalLine, Intersect, etc., the orthocenter and circumcenter of a triangle can be constructed, and the distances between them can be measured. Suitable for high school geometry learners and teachers.
