Step-by-step explanation:

Given:Find the length of the median AP of ∆ABC whose vertices are A(–1, 3), B( –3,2) and C(5,-1).

To find:

Length of median AP.

Solution:

Draw the triangle roughly,as shown in attachment.

Since P is midpoint of BC.

Find the co-ordinate of P:

Mid - point \:  P(x,y)= P\bigg( \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2},  \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}\bigg ) \\  \\

Thus,

B(-3,2)=> Let (x1,y1)

C(5,-1)=>Let (x2,y2)

Co-ordinate of P

x =  \frac{-3 + 5}{ 2}  =  \frac{2}{2} = 1 \\  \\ y =  \frac{ 2-1}{2}   =  \frac{1}{2}  \\  \\

Thus,

P(1,1/2)

Length of Median AP:

 Distance \: formula = \sqrt{( {x_2 - x_1)}^{2}  + ( {y_2 - y_1)}^{2} }  \\  \\

A(-1,3) and P(1,1/2)

AP =  \sqrt{( {-1 -1 )}^{2}  +\big ( {3 - \frac{1}{2}\big)}^{2} }  \\  \\

AP=  \sqrt{( {-2)}^{2}  + \bigg( {\frac{5}{2}}\bigg)^{2} }  \\  \\

 AP= \sqrt{4 + \frac{25}{4} }   \\  \\

AP=\sqrt{ \frac{16+25}{4} } \\ \\

AP=\sqrt{ \frac{41}{4} }\:units\\\\

Thus,

Length of Median AP is √(41/4)units.

Hence proved.

Hope it helps you.
