Question

Find the coordinates of the centroid.F(1,5) G(-2,7) H(-6,3)

Answer 1

Answer:

The coordinates of the centroid is

`(-(7)/(3),5)`

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the centroid of a triangle is given as:

`((x_1+x_2+x_3)/(3),(y_1+y_2+y_3)/(3))`

Using the above formula, we have:

`\begin{gathered} C=((1+(-2)+(-6))/(3),(5+7+3)/(3)) \\ \\ =(-(7)/(3),(15)/(3)) \\ \\ =(-(7)/(3),5) \end{gathered}`
