Median of Isosceles Triangle from Vertex Calculator

Calculate Median





Formula

The formula to calculate the Median of an Isosceles Triangle from the Vertex is:

M=4S2LegsS2Base2

Definition

The median of an isosceles triangle is a line segment joining a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side, thus bisecting that side. The legs are the two equal sides of the isosceles triangle, and the base is the third and unequal side.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

M=4926228.48528137423857

The Median is approximately 8.48528137423857 Meters.
