1. If ABC is a triangle and AD is its median, then (AB + 11.

The centroid of a triangle is the same as the

midpoints of the sides of the triangle.
2. The sum of two medians of a triangle is
greater than the third median. 12. The sum of the squares of the distances of the

triangle is equal to four times the sum of squares of
the medians.
13. If G is the centroid of a triangle
4. Apollonius's theorem
The sum of the squares of any two sides of any
triangle equals twice the square on half the third side,
together with twice the square on the median
bisecting the third side.

Specifically, in any triangle ABC, if AD is a median,

then (AB)2+(AC)2=2((AD)2+(BD)2).

5. The sum of the medians of a triangle is less

than the perimeter of the triangle and greater
than three-fourths of the perimeter.

Symbolically, (3/4)(a+b+c)<m a +m b +m c <a+b+c.

6. The vector sum of the medians of any triangle

is zero.

⃗⃗⃗⃗⃗ + 𝐵𝑄
Symbolically, 𝐴𝑃 ⃗⃗⃗⃗⃗ + 𝐶𝑅
⃗⃗⃗⃗⃗ = 𝑂.

7. Viviani's Theorem

For an equilateral triangle, the sum of the altitudes

from any point in the triangle is equal to the altitude
from a vertex of the triangle to the other side.

8. The sum of the altitudes of a triangle is less

than the perimeter of the triangle.

9. The sum of the squares of the sides of a

parallelogram equals the sum of the squares
of its diagonals.

Symbolically, in parallelogram ABCD,

(AC) 2 +(BD) 2 =(AB) 2 +(BC) 2 +(CD) 2 +(DA) 2
=2((AB) 2 +(BC) 2 ).

10. The length of the median AD in triangle ABC is

given by

AD=√2(𝐴𝐵2 ) + 2(𝐴𝐶 2 ) − (𝐵𝐶 2 ).
