Question

Find the length of the medians of the triangle whose vertices are A(-1, -2), B(3, 6), and C(1, 0).

median to AB =

median to BC =

median to CA =

Answer 1

mid point rule then distance formula to that midpoint.

Answer 2

so from AB
A(-1, -2), B(3, 6)
(-1+3)/2 , (-2+6)/2
1, 2 = MP
then use distance formula to the vertex of C C(1, 0) to MP

sqrt( (dx)^2 + (dy)^2 )


sqrt( (1-1)^2 + (2-0)^2 )
2^2
4
sqrt(4)=2 so AB is 2 :) can you do the other 2?

Answer 3

yes:)
