Class 12 Maths · Vector Algebra · Long Answer #79

In triangle ABC, AB=(0,1,1), AC=(3,−1,4). Find the length of the median from A.
D is the midpoint of BC
D is the midpoint of BC

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: √34/2
  1. Let D be the midpoint of BC. Then AD=(AB+AC)/2.
  2. Thus AD=(3/2,0,5/2).
  3. Its squared norm is 9/4+25/4=34/4.
  4. The median length is √34/2.
