Solution

The correct option is A

True


A median of a triangle is a line segment that joins a vertex to the mid-point of the side that is opposite to that vertex.
An altitude of a triangle is a line segment that starts from the vertex and meets the opposite side at right angles.
In an isosceles triangle, both median and altitude are same.
