In triangle ABC, the medians AD and CF meet at the centroid G and are mutually perpendicular there. If BC = 3 cm and AB = 4 cm, find the length of AC (in cm).

Question

Accepted Answer

sqrt(5). A standard result: if the medians from vertices A and C are perpendicular, then b² (the side AC) satisfies AB² + BC² = 5*AC². Substitute the given lengths.
