Problem
Given a triangle with , . Find the angle between its medians and . (S. Mazanik)

Solution
Let be the point of intersection of the medians and . Draw the line through parallel to . Let be the point of intersection of and the line . The triangles and are equal (, , ), so . Since , we see that is a right-angled triangle and .
Since , it follows that is an isosceles triangle and
Since , it follows that is an isosceles triangle and
Final answer
60°
