In the figure below which term best describes point X?
1 answer:
The answer is B. centroid, which is the intersection of three medians of the triangle's sides.
Let's look into other answers as well:
A. Circumcenter
It is the point where three perpendicular bisector meet, and is not correct as we can see there is no indication of right angles.
The first photo is what a circumcenter looks like:
C. Incenter
It is the point where the angle bisectors of the triangles meet, which is not indicated in the photo as well.
The second photo is what a incenter looks like:
D. Orthocenter
It is a point where the altitudes of a triangle intersect, and is not indicated by the figure.
The second photo is what a Orthocenter looks like:
Therefore the answer is B. Centroid.
Hope it helps!
