📖 Physical Concept & Comprehensive Explanation

Generalizes the Pythagorean theorem to arbitrary triangles, relating median lengths to side lengths as AB^2 + AC^2 = 2*(AD^2 + BD^2). It yields the universal median identity: 3 * sum(sides^2) = 4 * sum(medians^2).

🎯 High-Yield Revision Points

  • ✓Equation: AB^2 + AC^2 = 2(AD^2 + BD^2).
  • ✓Used to compute median lengths directly from side dimensions.
  • ✓Proves 3 * sum(sides^2) = 4 * sum(medians^2).
