Applying the centroid theorem of a triangle, the length of CG is: 26.
<em><u>Recall:</u></em>
- Medians join the vertices to the midpoint of the opposite sides of a triangle.
- The center that all the three medians intersect at is called the centroid.
- Based on the centroid theorem, the distant from the centroid to the vertex = 2/3 of the median length.
Triangle ABC is shown in the image attached below. G is the centroid.
CF = 39 (median)
CG = 2/3(CF) ---> Centroid Theorem.
- Substitute
CG = 2/3(39)
CG = 26
Therefore, applying the centroid theorem of a triangle, the length of CG is: 26.
