The document defines and describes two special points associated with triangles: the orthocenter, which is the point where the three altitudes (perpendicular lines from each vertex to the opposite side) intersect, and the circumcenter, which is the point where the three perpendicular bisectors (lines that bisect and are perpendicular to each side) intersect.

The orthocenter is the point where the three altitudes
of a triangle intersect. An altitude of a triangle is a perpendicular line segment from a vertex to the line containing the opposite side.
Circumcenter
The circumcenter is the point where the
perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle intersect. A perpendicular bisector of a side is a line that is perpendicular to the side and passes through its midpoint.
