Let $ABC$ be a triangle and $D$ a point inside the triangle, located on the median of $A$. Prove that if $\angle BDC = 180^o - \angle BAC$, then $AB \cdot CD = AC \cdot BD$.
In an acute triangle $\triangle ABC$ the points $C_m, A_m, B_m$ are the midpoints of $AB, BC, CA$ respectively. Inside the triangle $\triangle ABC$ a point $P$ is chosen so that $\angle PCB = \angle B_mBC$ and $\angle PAB = \angle ABB_m.$ A line passing through $P$ and perpendicular to $AC$ meets the median $BB_m$ at $E.$ Prove that $E$ lies on the circumcircle of the triangle $\triangle A_mB_mC_m.$ [i](K. Ivanov )[/i]
On triangle $ABC$ the $AM$ ($M\in BC$) is median and $BB_1$ and $CC_1$ ($B_1 \in AC,C_1 \in AB$) are altitudes. The stright line $d$ is perpendicular to $AM$ at the point $A$ and intersect the lines $BB_1$ and $CC_1$ at the points $E$ and $F$ respectively. Let denoted with $\omega$ the circle passing through the points $E, M$ and $F$ and with $\omega_1$ and with $\omega_2$ the circles that are tangent to segment $EF$ and with $\omega$ at the arc $EF$ which is not contain the point $M$. If the points $P$ and $Q$ are intersections points for $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ then prove that the points $P, Q$ and $M$ are collinear.

From the vertex $C$ in triangle $ABC$, draw a straight line that bisects the median from $A$. In what ratio does this line divide the segment $AB$? [img]https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SxWIQ12DIvs/XzcJv5xoV0I/AAAAAAAAMY4/Ezfe8bd7W-Mfp2Qi4qE_gppbh9Fzvb4XwCLcBGAsYHQ/s0/1995%2BMohr%2Bp3.png[/img]
In the triangle $ABC$ the median $AM$ is drawn. Is it possible that the radius of the circle inscribed in $\vartriangle ABM$ could be twice as large as the radius of the circle inscribed in $\vartriangle ACM$ ? ( D . Fomin , Leningrad)
Find the greatest value of $p$ and the smallest value of $q$ such that for any triangle in the plane, the inequality \[p<\frac{a+m}{b+n}<q\] holds, where $a,b$ are it's two sides and $m,n$ their corresponding medians.
In the triangle $ABC$, the bisector of angle $A$ is equal to the half-sum of the height and median drawn from vertex $A$. Prove that if $\angle A$ is obtuse, then $AB = AC$.
In an acute triangle, the distance from the midpoint of any side to the opposite vertex is equal to the sum of the distances from it to sides of the triangle. Prove that this triangle is equilateral.

Prove that if two medians in a triangle are equal in length, then the triangle is isosceles. (Note: A median in a triangle is a segment which connects a vertex of the triangle to the midpoint of the opposite side of the triangle.)
