Solution

The correct option is D

(9,4.5)


For regular objects, the centre of gravity lies at their geometrical centre. To find the required geometrical centre, we have to draw perpendicular bisectors for both the sides. So, for the given dimensions we have coordinates of the center of gravity as (x, y) = (9,4.5)
