Answer 1

JP=18

PS=9

Explanation:

centroid divides median in the ratio 2:1

so,

JP:PS=2:1

Now take PS be x

then JP=2x

now, given JS=27

JP+PS=27

2x+x=27

3x=27

x=9

so,

PS=9

AND JP=18

Answer 2

JP = 18

PS = 9

Explanation:

ps being the shorter side is one third of the line JS and 1/3 of 27 is 9

jp being the longer side is 2/3 the length of js and 2/3s of 27 is 18
