A line segment joining the vertex of triangle to the midpoint of the opposing side.

The number separating the higher half of a data sample, a population, or a probability distribution, from the lower half. The median of a finite list of numbers can be found by arranging all the observations from lowest value to highest value and picking the middle one (e.g., the median of {3, 3, 5, 9, 11} is 5). If there is an even number of observations, then there is no single middle value; the median is then usually defined to be the mean of the two middle values.

The median strip; the area separating two lanes of opposite-direction traffic.

Situated in the middle; central, intermediate.

In the middle of an organ, structure etc.; towards the median plane of an organ or limb.

Having the median as its value.
