Step 1

D = ((Bx + Cx)/2, (By + Cy)/2) D = ((8 + 14)/2, (-6 + 0)/2) D = (11, -3) Now, we have the coordinates of points A and D, so we can find the slope of the median AD. Slope of AD = (Dy - Ay) / (Dx - Ax) Slope of AD = (-3 - 2) / (11 - 6) Slope of AD = -5 / 5 Show more…

Points A, B, and C make the triangle ABC and are at the coordinates A(6, 2), B(8, -6), and C(14, 0). Point D is the midpoint of BC and AD is a median of triangle ABC. The equation of the median can be given by Ax + By = C, where A, B, and C are constants.
