Let ABC be the given triangle with  D as the midpoint of BCG be the centroid of the  ΔABC.

The poles of height  h1 at  D,h2 at  G subtend the same angle at  A.

In ΔADEIn ΔAGFtanα=DEADtanα=GFAGtanα=h1ADtanα=h2AGAD=h1cotαAG=h2cotα

Now, AG=23AD (G is centroid and AD is median)

h2cotα=23h1cotα

3h2=2h1

h1h2=32
