You can use points of concurrency in triangles for many jobs. One job is archaeology. An archaeologist’s job has a lot to do with culture, and the way people used to live. Archaeologists dig up ancient artifacts, many of which are broken. To piece these back together perfectly, they can use points of concurrency. When they use points of concurrency, they find the centers, (centroid, orthocenter, etc.) take each piece, and try to figure out exactly where it belongs in the broken object. This is just one of the many different jobs that you can use with points of concurrency.

Real Life Applications for Geometry

This shocked me. You never think of all the people who really do need to use geometry. When I think of careers that use geometry I think of constuction workers. Good example!

This is another different job that uses geometry. It’s interesting how many people use it day to day.

I never thought of points of concurency like that. thats really interesting!

Thats pretty sweet I didn’t know archaeologists used geometry. It makes a lot of sense once you think about it though.

I never would of thought of that good work anna banana

This is cool. I never would of thought that people dealing with history and culture would ever use geometry in their job. Thats really interesting!

Archeoligists use geometry? thats cool i thought they just dug stuff up.
December 14, 2009 at 9:05 pm |
wow i never thought that archeologist woukd use the points of concuricys
December 14, 2009 at 9:12 pm |
This is very interesting i have never thought of this

I never thought archaelolologists used geometry, but now that you think about it, it makes sense.

i didnt know that you could use points of concurrency like that
