SOLUTION

Draw the diagram

a median of a triangle is a line segment joining a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side, thus bisecting that side.

Hence


|DB|\text bisect

SInce AC=30, Then


\begin{gathered} AB=15,\text{ CB= 15} \\ \text{Hence} \\ |AB|=15 \end{gathered}

Thus, from the median properties of a triangle, AB = 15
