Abstract

एकवृृन्तगतफलद्वृयन्यायः is a popular maxim in Sanskrit literature used to describe situations when one effort gives two or many results simultaneously. Sometimes while solving problems, we stumble upon interesting results different from the intended results. One such example is given below. Problem: Using ruler and compass, construct the triangle whose median lengths are given.
