Let P(1, −1), Q(2, −1) and R(4, −3) be the mid-points of the sides AB, BC and CA, respectively, of ABC.
Let be the vertices of ABC.
Since, P is the mid-point of AB,
... (1)
Q is the mid-point of BC.
... (2)
R is the mid-point of AC.
... (3)
Adding equations (1), (2) and (3), we get:
Hence, the coordinates of the centroid of the triangle is .
