Stewart's Theorem ( for triangle's medians)
Description
Stewart’s theorem yields a relation between the length of the sides of the triangle and the length of a cevian of the triangle. A cevian is any line segment in a triangle with one endpoint on a vertex of the triangle and the other endpoint on the opposite side.If the cevian happens to be a median, its length can be determined by the length of the triangle’s sides
