Sin^2(A)+ cos^2(A)=1 Cos^2(A)=1-Sin^2(A) =1-(1/2)^2 =1-(1/4) =3/4 Cos(A). =?(3/4) Cos(A). =(?3)/2

ABC is a triangle, AD is median. O is a point on AD. Produced AD to X, OD = DX given. BD = CD, join BX and CX. Thus diagonals of quadrilateral OBXC bisect each other. So OBXC is a parallelogram. So BX parallel to CF. So BX parallel to OF. Now in triangle ABX, AO/AX = AF/AB =AO:AX = AF:AB Proved!

Sketch the triangle and mark the points on it. In the rectangle OBXC, OD=DX and AB=DC given. So it a parrallelogram. Hene FB is parallel to CX and OC(Hence FC is parallel to BX. Hence in the traingle ABX, AO:AX = AF: AB Proved
