Answer to Question 1

Einthoven's triangle is a means of illustrating that the two arms and the left leg form the apices of a triangle surrounding the heart. The two apices at the upper part of the triangle represent the points at which the two arms connect electrically with the fluids around the heart. The lower apex is the point at which the left leg connects with the fluids.

Answer to Question 2

On the ECG, the ST segment represents early ventricular repolarization and the T wave presents ventricular repolarization.
