Solution

The correct option is B Equilateral triangle
Centroid is point of intersection of medians of a triangle.
Orthocenter is point of intersection of three altitudes of a triangle.
For an equilateral triangle, the centroid and the orthocentre all lie at the same point and hence are concurrent.
