Medians' theorem
Description
Relates the medians and the sides of an arbitrary triangle. Median of a triangle is a line segment joining a vertex to the midpoint of the opposing side. Every triangle has exactly three medians, one from each vertex, and they all intersect each other at the triangle’s centroid.
