Problem:
Point on side of triangle satisfies
Prove that the line bisects the median of triangle drawn from vertex .
Problem:
Point on side of triangle satisfies
Prove that the line bisects the median of triangle drawn from vertex .
Solution:
Let be the midpoint of line segment . The conditions of the problem imply . Let be the midpoint of line segment . Then is a midline of . Consequently, . Ray bisects side of triangle while being parallel to side of this triangle. Thus extends the midline of triangle and bisects therefore also its side . But line segment is the median of triangle

drawn from vertex .
Solution:
Let be the midpoint of segment . Choose point on ray beyond point such that . Then is a median of triangle . As , point is the intersection point of medians of triangle . Thus lies entirely on the other median of triangle , i.e., ray bisects the segment . As is the midline of triangle , we have , implying that ray also bisects the segment . But this is the median of triangle drawn from vertex .
