The lengths of the medians through acute angles of a right-angled triangle are 3 and 4. Find the area of the triangle.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

AD=3
CE=4
Apollonian theorem
`(AB)^2+(AC)^2=2((AD)^2+(BD)^2)`
`b^2+c^2=2(9+a_2/4)-(1)`
`b^2+a^2=2(c^2/4+16)-(2)`
`b^2=a^2+c^2`
`2b^2+a^2+c^2=2(a^2/4+c^2/4+25)`
