The vertices of a triangle are A(−1,2)A(-1,2), B(3,6)B(3,6) and C(5,−2)C(5,-2). (i) Find the coordinates of the midpoint MM of the side BCBC. (ii) Determine the equation of the median AMAM in slope–intercept form. (iii) Verify that the median obtained in part (ii) divides the triangle into two regions of equal area.
