To solve this problem, let us first define what a median is. A median is a line segment that connects a vertex and the midpoint of the side opposite to that vertex.

In this case, the vertex is point A while the opposing side is side CB. Since it connects to the midpoint of CB, therefore this means that the median AD equally divides side CB into 2 parts.  Since the length side CB is the sum of the lengths side CD and side BD. Therefore this means that:

length of CD = length of BD

length of CD = 24

 

Answer:

 24
