  • The image displays a large triangle labeled with vertices, although the vertices are not explicitly labeled, the structure suggests a base connecting two points, and a top vertex above the base.
  • The base of the triangle is labeled with two segments, \(\alpha\) on the left and \(\beta\) on the right, and the total length of the base is indicated as \(c\).
  • A dashed line represents an altitude, labeled \(h\), which is perpendicular to the base and connects the top vertex to the base.
  • The dashed altitude divides the base \(c\) into the segments \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\), such that \(c = \alpha + \beta\). The altitude \(h\) appears to be the height corresponding to the base \(c\).
