Phrase | median |
Text | The word "median," in this podcast, means the space between two sides of a highway or another important road: "While we were driving north on the highway, we looked over the median and could see that the cars going south were moving very slowly." In mathematics, the word "median" describes a number that is in the middle of an ordered list, with an equal number of items above and below it: "In the set [2, 4, 5, 8, 9], 5 is the median." Finally, in geometry, a "median" is a line drawn from one point of a triangle to the center of the opposite site: "The median of an equilateral triangle always divides the triangle into two identical, smaller triangles." |
