Similar Triangles and Medians

If two sides and a median bisecting the third side of a triangle are respectively proportional to the corresponding sides and the median of another triangle, then the two triangles are similar.

Two triangles ABC and DEF , in which AP and DM are the medians , such that                AB/DE = AC/DF = AP/DM  , then ΔABC  ∼ ΔDEF
