AD is the median of triangle ABC .Find the area of triangle ADC .If the area of triangle ABC is 52 cm2

a median of a triangle divides the main triangle into two triangles of equal area
therfore ,
ar(ABD) + ar (ADC) = ar( ABC )
ar(ADC) + ar (ADC) = ar(ABC)
( since ar(ADC ) = ar(ABD) )
2 ar( ADC ) = ar (ABC )
ar ( ADC) = 1/2ar ( ABC )
ar(ADC) = 1/2 * 52
ar(ADC) = 26 cm².


hope it will help u....
