A median of a triangle is a line segment from any vertex to the mid-point of the side opposite to that vertex.i.e it bisects the side opposite to that vertex.

Median of a triangleĪ median of a triangle is a line segment from the vertex to the mid-point of the side opposite to that vertex. Let us now learn about the median of a triangle. Every triangle has exactly three medians, one from each vertex, and they all intersect each other at the triangle's centroid. Trigonometric ratios of 90+theta,90-theta,180+theta etcĪs we are already familiar with Triangles and have also learned their congruencies and similarities. In geometry, a median of a triangle is a line segment joining a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side, thus bisecting that side.Trigonometric Table from 0 to 360 degree.
