Answer:

18

Explanation:

Since we know that the length of segment CG is 6 units greater than the length of segment DG, we just multiply it by 2. We multiply it by 2 because a centroid will always have a line segment that in in a 2:1 ratio. Since CG is twice the size of DG, we just mutiply it by 2, then add the original number.

6+6=12

12+6=18

Answer:

The answer is 18 units

Explanation:

G as centroid of triangle ABC

CG = 6+6+6/3 + D G

Centroid is that the medians intersect at this point

The length of CD is just twice that of CG

The equation

In ABC point AG = 6

BG=6

CG = 6

DG = 6+6+6

DG= 18

The answer is 18 units
