Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
visually, without actually measuring it
it's either answer B or C,
more likely B
definitely not A or D
not B and C
has to be either B or C but not both
the point B seems to divide the base in half. if so, that's the definition of "median" in geometry, also a similar definition in statistics
AB also visually seems to divide the vertex angle, that's the definition of "angle bisector" it's definitely not a perpendiclar bisector though of the angle or opposite side
Go with median, answer B
this is almost a trick question as answer C is very tempting and some people will get tricked into it
since Richard C seems to be into geometry, odds are his video probably explains more why it isn't answer C. with diagrams
