Answer:

d). The medians.

Step by step explanation:

Since we know that the centroid of a triangle is a point where three medians of triangle intersect.

Median is a line segment that joins the vertex of a triangle to the mid-point of opposite side. Median bisects opposite side in two equal parts. There are exactly three medians in every triangle.

Let us see which of our given option is correct.

Upon looking at our options we can see that option d is the correct choice.
