A median of a triangle means either the segment joining one vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side of the triangle, or the straight line that contains this segment. It is a particular case of a cevian of the triangle. The medians are concurrent at the centroid. The centroid divides the medians in a 2:1 ratio.
