The base $BC$ of a triangle $ABC$ is bisected at the point $(p, q)$ and the equation to the side $AB \,\,ane\,\, AC$ are $px + qy = 1 \,\,ane\,\, qx + py = 1$ . The equation of the median through $A$ is :

  • A

    $(p - 2q) x + (q - 2p) y + 1 = 0$

  • B

    $(p + q) (x + y) - 2 = 0$

  • C

    $(2pq - 1) (px + qy - 1) = (p^2 + q^2 - 1) (qx + py - 1)$

  • D

    none
