Question:

In a ΔABC, the sides are AB = 7 cm, AC = 24 cm, BC = 25 cm. From A, a straight line AM is drawn up to the median M of side BC.  Then the length of AM is equal to?

Options:

12.5 cm

15.5 cm

18.5 cm

25.5 cm

Correct Answer:

12.5 cm

Explanation:

Triplets = 7, 24, 25

So, AM (median) = \(\frac{BC}{2}\) = \(\frac{25}{2}\) = 12.5 cm
