Expert Answer:
Let A = (1, -1), B=(0,4), C=(-5,3)
Let AD be the median through A.
Median AD of the triangle will divide the side BC in two equal parts. So D is the midpoint of side BC.
The coordinates of D are given by
Thus, using distance formula, length of median through A = Length of AD
units
Similarly, lengths of other two medians can be found.
Let AD be the median through A.
Median AD of the triangle will divide the side BC in two equal parts. So D is the midpoint of side BC.
The coordinates of D are given by
