Question

By paper folding method, get medians of a triangle and show that they pass through a common

point.​

Answer 1

=Cut out a triangular shape from a thick paper and name it as ABC

=Fold the side AC on itself so that vertex C falls on vertex A. Mark the point of intersection of the line of fold with AC as P. P is the mid point of AC.

=Similarly, find mid points of sides AB and BC and mark them as Q and R respectively.

=Now fold the triangular cut out to create a crease along BP. The crease thus obtained is the median from vertex B on the side AC.

=Similarly, get medians from vertex A and C as AR and CQ.

Hope this helps
