Step 1
Following picture shows triangle ABC with median AD at E, and another line BF, which
bisects AD. We have also drawn another line DG which is parallel to BF
Step 2
From proportionality theorem we know that if a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle, it
divides other two sides in the same ration
Step 3
For triangle BFC, DG is parallel to BF and using proportionality theorem we can find that,
FG
GC
BD
DC
Step 4
Since we know that BD = DC, we can find that
GC = FG ................ (1)
Step 5
Similarly we can use proportionality theorem for triangle ADG,
AF
FG
AE
ED
Step 6
But since AE = ED,
FG = AF ................ (2)
Step 7
Therefore,
AC = AF + FG + GC
Using relation (1) and (2),
AC = AF + AF + AF,
AC = 3 AF
