Symmedian

I have a few problems with this opening... allow me to elaborate


Symmedians are three special geometrical lines associated with every triangle. (What do you mean special?! What is the point of them) To construct one, start with a median of the triangle (a line connecting one vertex with the midpoint of the opposite side) then reflect it over the corresponding angle bisector (the line through the same vertex that divides the angle of the triangle there in two equal parts) (First, this doesn't make any sense, and second it belongs in the second paragraph) The resulting line is a symmedian (Gee thanks...).


Well, actually it does make sense, but it could be clearer.
