Question

ABC is a triangle whose vertices are A(4,8) B(2,4) and C(6,6).Find the equations of the side AB and median BE of the triangle​

Answer 1

Answer: Median is a line from vertex to the opposite side which divides the opposite line in two equal line segments.

A (4, 2), B (1, -2), and C (-2, 6): These are the co-ordinates of a triangle with sides AB, BC, and CA.

You can easily calculate the mid points of the sides of the triangle by mid-point formula.

Point of mid-point of a line =1+22,1+22
