OpenStudy (anonymous):

its been a while since i have had geometry so i dont remember what you mean by medians but

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hold on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@quechukis a median of a triangle is a line segment joining a vertex to the midpoint of the opposing side.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's a example for u guys don't know what it is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AC=a2+b2−−−−−−√ AB=2a In an equilateral triangle, AB=AC from this we find b=a3√

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@PhantomX1 thanks :) what do we do with the b=a3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know, but it seems completely obvious that if all 3 sides are equal that the medians are equal. I hated having to prove completely obvious things in geometry. I love math, but I hated that stuff.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What's next? Prove that 2 + 2 = 4 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hahahaha ugh I know... :/ this is too hard :(
