Explanation
A median of a triangle is a line segment that joins thevertex of a triangle to the midpoint of the opposite side.Mid point of two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is calculated by the formula (x1+x22,y1+y22)Since AD is the median, this means, D is the mid point of BC. Using this formula, mid point of BC =(7−22,2−52)=(52,−32)
Distance between two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) can be calculated using the formula √(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2
Hence, length of AD =√(52−3)2+(−32−4)2=√14+1214=√1224=√1222
