Given:
ΔABC ΔDEF
To find:
The length of median CP
Solution:
In ΔABC,
AP = 12, BP = 12 and PC = 3x - 12
In ΔDEF,
DQ = 16, QE = 16 and FQ = 2x + 8
If two triangles are similar, then their median is proportional to the corresponding sides.
Do cross multiplication.
Add 192 on both sides.
Subtract 24x from both sides.
Divide by 24 on both sides.
⇒ 12 = x
Substitute x = 12 in CP.
CP = 3(12) - 12
= 36 - 12
= 24
The length of median CP is 24.
we must do the following:
0
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
select the major, the minor and the half and add, like this:
therefore:
also:
the groups are:
(9,0,1,5); (7,6,2); (8,4,3)
