Answer to Problem 9CT
When the three medians are drawn , the median to the base is divided into segments with lengths 2 and 1.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
An isoscelels
From part (a) , the length of the median to the base is 3.
Calculation:
Since we know that the median to the base is divided in the ratio 2:1 , when the three medians are drawn.
So, let the lengths of the segments in which the median to the base is divided be 2x and x .
So, the length of the median to the base = 2x + x = 3x
We know that the length of the median to the base is 3.
So, 3x = 3 .
Hence x = 1.
So, when the three medians are drawn , the median to the base is divided into segments with lengths 2 and 1.
