Question 95

In an equilateral triangle, the orthocentre divides each median in the ratio x : y. If x > y, then fmd x : y.

Solution

This is a special property with respect to an equilateral triangle, where its orthocentre and centroid coincide with each other. 

Also, we know that the centroid divides the median in a ratio 2:1. Hence, the orthocentre shall divide the median in the same ratio.
