two sides of a triangle 17m and 28 cm long and the length of the median drawn to the third side is equal to 19.5 Find the distance frmo an endpoint of this median to the longest side?
pls draw a diagram pls :)
i think that this question is related to the topic solution of a triangle first of all we need to use the formula for median of a triangle =\[\sqrt{2a ^{2}+2b ^{2}-c ^{2}}/2\] so we will get the third side and median divides the side into two halves so we will get the length of the other half of the unknown side and thus a new triangle will be formed (RDJ)and by the formula for altitude, we can find the distance between the endpoint of the median and the longest side|dw:1383391955685:dw|
sorry for the clumsy reply feel free to ask anything
I've got the answer thank you
was this mehod correct
