I came across the following problem in my Euclidean Geometry text:
Construct a triangle given the ratio of an altitude to the base, the vertical angle (the angle opposite the base), and a median to a lateral side.
I started with the given vertical angle at a point B and tried to first construct a similar triangle to the sought for one, by choosing an arbitrary ratio m:n for base and altitude. I also choose B as the center of similitude. However I can't seem to figure out how to incorporate the median. Any help would be appreciated!
