Solution

  1. The center of gravity of a rigid body is the point at which its whole weight can be supposed to act.
  2. The position of the center of gravity depends on the distribution of mass of the body.
  3. The geometrical center of a triangle is the centroid. So, the center of gravity of a triangular lamina is also the centroid of that lamina.
