Question

(b) problem 9: (first taught in lesson 41)
select the triangle that shows △abc with all three of its medians.
after you pick your answer press go.
a b c d e

Explanation:

Step1: Recall median definition

A median of $\triangle ABC$ from vertex $A$ is a line - segment joining $A$ to the mid - point of $BC$, from vertex $B$ is a line - segment joining $B$ to the mid - point of $AC$, and from vertex $C$ is a line - segment joining $C$ to the mid - point of $AB$.

Step2: Visualize in a triangle

In a correctly drawn triangle with all three medians, we should see three line - segments, each starting from a vertex and ending at the mid - point of the opposite side, and they should intersect at a single point (the centroid).

Answer:

(No options are given for us to select, so we can't provide a specific answer from A - E. But conceptually, a median of a triangle is a line - segment joining a vertex to the mid - point of the opposite side. A triangle has three medians, one from each vertex. The point where the three medians intersect is called the centroid.)
