In geometry, an orthocentric tetrahedron is a tetrahedron where all three pairs of opposite edges are perpendicular. It is also known as an orthogonal tetrahedron since orthogonal means perpendicular. It was first studied by Simon Lhuilier in 1782, and got the name orthocentric tetrahedron by G. de Longchamps in 1890.

Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • En géométrie, un tétraèdre orthocentrique, est un tétraèdre dont les quatre hauteurs sont concourantes. Leur point de concours est alors désigné comme l'orthocentre du tétraèdre. Il a été étudié par Simon Lhuilier en 1782 , puis par G. de Longchamps en 1890, qui lui a donné son nom . Le tétraèdre régulier, et le tétraèdre trirectangle en sont des cas particuliers, mais pas le tétraèdre quadrirectangle. (fr)

It is also known as an orthogonal tetrahedron since orthogonal means perpendicular. It was first studied by Simon Lhuilier in 1782, and got the name orthocentric tetrahedron by G. de Longchamps in 1890. In an orthocentric tetrahedron the four altitudes are concurrent. This common point is called the orthocenter, and it has the property that it is the symmetric point of the center of the circumscribed sphere with respect to the centroid. Hence the orthocenter coincides with the Monge point of the tetrahedron. (en)
