Question

For (triangle)DEF, you are required to construct the median DG to EF. Which of the following must be performed first?

Answer 1

Answer: C. Bisect DE at G.

Step-by-step explanation:

• In a triangle, a median is a line segment drawn from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side of the vertex.

So, for triangle DEF , if we draw the median DG to the opposite side EF.

Here EF is the opposite side to vertex D.

So, G must be the midpoint of line segment EF.

So , we need to first mark G on EF.

i.e. we need to bisect EF at G.

So first step would be : Bisect EF at G.
