Question : In $\triangle \mathrm{STU}, \mathrm{SX}$ is the median on $\mathrm{TU}$. If $\mathrm{SX}=\mathrm{TX}$, then what is the value of $\angle \mathrm{TSU}$?

Option 1: 75°

Option 2: 45°

Option 3: 60°

Option 4: 90°

Team Careers360 18th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 90°


Solution :
In $\triangle$STU, SX is the median.
So, TX = XU (median property)
SX = TX (given)
So, $\triangle$STX is an isosceles triangle.
Let $\angle$STX = $\angle$TSX = $\theta$
⇒ $\angle$SXU = $2\theta$ (exterior angle)
Similarly in $\triangle$SXU,
SX = XU
$\triangle$SXU is an isosceles triangle.

Solution : $3\frac{1}{2} - [2\frac{1}{4}+ 1\frac{1}{4} -\frac{1}{2}(1\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3} -\frac{1}{6})]$
$=3\frac{1}{2} -[2\frac{1}{4}+ 1\frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{2}(\frac{3}{2}-\frac{1}{2})]$
$=3\frac{1}{2} -[2\frac{1}{4}+ 1\frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{2}\times 1]$
$=3\frac{1}{2} -[\frac{9}{4}+\frac{5}{4} - \frac{1}{2}]$
$=3\frac{1}{2} -[\frac{14}{4} - \frac{1}{2}]$
$=3\frac{1}{2} -[\frac{12}{4}]$
$=\frac{7}{2} -3$
$=\frac{1}{2}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{1}{2}$.
