Question

Find the equation of the median through the first vertex of a triangle whose vertices are (8,11), (-1,-1) and (5,7).​

Answer 1

Answer:

The full explained answer is here:

The foot of the median on line joining (-1,-1) and (5,7) is x : [5+(-1)]/2 , y:[7+(-1)]/2 = (2,3)

now we now slope/m is

y2-y1/x2-x1= 11-3/8-2 = 8/6= 4/3

Now equation of line is :

y- y1/x - x1 =m

substituting the values we find equation
