Question 1150142: Let ABC be a triangle with centroid G. Points L, M, and N are the midpoints of sides BC, CA, and AB respectively. Let D be the foot of the altitude from A to BC and let K be the foot of the altitude from L to MN.

(a) Show that AD/LK=2
(b) Show that triangleADG is similar to triangleLKG
(c) Show that D, G and K are collinear and that DG/GK=2

This passage ". . . let K be the foot of the altitude from L to MN."


            is   incorrect  usage  of  Math  terms.


I don't want to guess what you were going to express.

I think it would be better if  you  fix this passage  on your own.

After fixing,  you can re-post your problem to the forum again.


Happy fixing and re-posting  (!)
