Question

Given a triangle with vertices A(-3,6), B(5, -2) c(-5,-4) Find the coordinates of thecentroid.

Answer 1

Answer:

(-1,0)

Explanation:

Given the vertices of the triangle as A(-3,6), B(5, -2), and C(-5,-4), we can find the coordinates of the centroid as shown below;

$Centroid\lbrack\frac{-3+5+(-5}{3},\frac{6+(-2)+(-4)_{}}{3}\rbrack$

Simplifying the above, we'll have;

$\begin{gathered} \text{Centroid}(\frac{-3}{3},\frac{0}{3}) \\ \text{Centroid}(-1,0) \end{gathered}$
