A median divides a triangle into two triangles of equal area. (Answer) And it's easy to see why. Draw a horizontal line BC and place a point A anywhere above the BC line. Connect AB and AC to form a triangle. Place a point D at the midpoint of BC. Connect AD. That's a median of ΔABC. Now, the areas of ΔABD and ΔACD are equal, because BD≅CD, and the altitudes of the two triangles are equal.
