Question

If the middle points of the sides of a triangle be (-2, 3), (4, -3) and (4, 5) then centroid of triangle is

• A. $(\frac{5}{3},2)$
• B. $(\frac{5}{6},1)$
• C. $(1,\frac{5}{6})$
• D. $(2,\frac{5}{3})$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $(2,\frac{5}{3})$

Centroid of a triangle concides with the centroid of the triangle formed by joining the mid point of sides of given triangle.

So the centroid of triangle is

$(\frac{-2+4+4}{3},\frac{3-3+5}{3})(\frac{6}{3},\frac{5}{3})(2,\frac{5}{3})$
