The centroid cuts each median into two segments. The shorter segment is _ _ _ _ the length of the entire segment.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

One third

The centroid of a triangle divides each median.

The shorter segment is 1/3 and the length of the entire segment is 1

The centroid of a triangle divides the median in the following ratio

[tex]\mathbf{Ratio = 2 : 1}[/tex]

The fraction of the shorter segment is:

[tex]\mathbf{Short = \frac{1}{1 + 2}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Short = \frac{1}{3}}[/tex]

Hence, the shorter segment is 1/3, while the entire segment is 1.
