Thread: Coordinate geometry - Median

The question:

A triangle ABC has vertices A(-3,-4), B(1,4), and C(5,-6). Find the equation of the median from:

a. C to AB

b. A to BC

c. B to AC

The problem:

I answered 'a' and 'b' correctly but I keep getting 'c' wrong. Can someone tell me what to do?
Thanks in advance

Show your work

Midpoint of AC is (1,-5) So you want line joining (1,4) to (1,-5)
