Step-by-step explanation:
Given: ABC is an equilateral triangle whose medians are AD, BE and CF. To Prove: AD = BE = CF
Proof: In Triangle ADC and Triangle BEC,
AC = BC
Triangle ABC is equilateral .: AB = BC = CA
ACD = BCE
A ABC is equilateral .: ABC = BCA = CAB = 60°
DE = EC
AD is a median
DC = DB =BC
BE is a median
EA = EC =AC
AC = BC
DC = EC
Triangle ADC =Triangle BEC
SAS congruence rule
AD = BE............c.s.c.t.
Similarly, we can prove that
BE = CF ..(2) =
and CF = AD ..(3)
From (1), (2) and (3)
AD = BE = CF
hence proved.
