A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and the midpoint of the side opposite that vertex.
The median only bisects the vertex angle from which it is drawn when it is an isosceles triangle.

Median
A segment of a triangle that connects a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side is called a median. Each triangle has three medians, one from each vertex, and they all intersect at a point known as the centroid. The centroid is the point where the triangle's mass is balanced, and it divides each median into two segments, with the longer segment being from the vertex to the centroid and the shorter segment from the centroid to the midpoint of the opposite side.
A perpendicular line or segment that bisects one side of a triangle is called the median of the triangle. Specifically, it is the line segment that connects a vertex of the triangle to the midpoint of the opposite side, creating two equal segments. This segment is not only perpendicular but also plays a crucial role in various triangle properties and constructions.
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and bisects the side of the triangle opposite the vertex.
side
A median of a triangle is a line segment joining a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side. Altitude of a triangle is a straight line through a vertex and perpendicular to the opposite side or an extension of the opposite side.
