Blanking on how medians in a triangle work

A median cuts a leg of a triangle in half. So for instance, PF being a median means that DP and PE are congruent and have the same length. Consequently, each component triangle (that is, ∆DPC, ∆EPC, ∆EQC, etc) all have the same area.

If A is the area of ∆PCE, then the area of ∆PFE is 3A.

Take PF = 24 to be the base of ∆PFE, and take PC to be the base of ∆PCE. The area of any triangle is equal to 1/2 times the base times the height. But ∆PFE and ∆PCE share the same height (you can see this by dropping an altitude from the vertex E down to the line containing PF), so PC is 1/3 the length of PF, so FC must be 2/3 the length of PF.

So FC has length 2/3 × 24 = 16.

step-by-step explanation:

when a number is between two straight lines it means the absolute value.

to find absolute value you need to know how many numbers is that number away from 0.

when finding absolute value the number will always come out positive

so absolute value of -3 is 3

absolute value of 3/2 is 3/2

absolute value of -2 is 2

absolute value of 3.5 is 3.5

absolute value of -1 is 1

now put these numbers in order:

a)   |-1|, |3/2|, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|
