What term best describes the point where the three medians of a triangle intersects

Mathematics

CENTROID is the term used to describe the point where the three medians of a triangle intersect.

Centroid is the center of gravity of the triangle. It is one of the triangle's point of concurrency. Aside from "center of gravity", it is also known as "center of mass" and "barycenter".

Centroids are always inside the triangle. Since, the centroid is where three medians intersect, each median divides the triangle into two smaller triangles of equal area. The centroid is exactly two-thirds the way along each median.

Other types of triangle centers aside from Centroids are:
1) incenter
2) circumcenter
3) orthocenter

Billy wants to live in the area defined by y &lt; 3x − 6. Explain how you can identify the houses in which Billy is interested i
Nadusha1986 [10]
Check the picture below.

to graph an inequality, you pretty much first off, need to graph the "equality" or equation, so for y < 3x − 6, first off, graph the line <span>y = 3x − 6.

and then you do a "true" or "false" check.

now, if you look at the line below, it splits the grid in two sections, so, let's check a point in either section, if one is false, the other is true and the other way around.

so, let's check the region on the left-hand-side, hmmmm say point 0,0, the origin.

y < 3x - 6

y = 0,  x = 0  thus

0 < 3(0) - 6

0 < -6   <--- now, is that really true? is 0 lesser than -6? not quite, is false.

recall that on the negative side, the closer to 0, the larger the value, so -1 is much larger than -1,000,000.

because the point 0,0 yielded a false inequality, that region is the "false region" and thus not shaded, therefore, the other side must be the "true region", and thus we shade that then.

we can run a quick check on that btw, say on point 4,4

y =4,   x = 4  thus

4 < 3(4) - 6

4 < 12 - 6

4 < 8    <---- yeap, is true, 4 is lesser/smaller than 8.

hmm ohh yes, the line needs to be dashed for a < or >, because it "has that boundary but it does not include it", unlike </span>⩽ and ⩾, which is a solid line, because it has that boundary and it includes it too.

Pls help ASAP. <br>I want to know what b and d are. I'm struggling. ​
Andrew [12]

Answer:

d = 16, b = 73

Step-by-step explanation:

To find b, i knew that the angles were congruent, so they were both the exact same.

To find d, I knew that the 65 degrees and the missing value of d had to add up to 81 degrees, because those are congruent too. So, I just subtracted 65 from 81 and then I got the answer.

I hope I helped.

Brainliest would be appreciated.

Geometry help?? 11-13
aalyn [17]
I'm guessing these are regular polygons so... here goes.... 11. angle 1 is (8-2)*180= 1080 then divide that by 8 (how many angles there are ) to get 135. angle 2 is 360/8 (the sum of the exterior angle is always 360) which is 45 and multiply it by 2 (because the two polygons are stuck together) to get 90.
12. it says 2 squares so angle 4 is definitely 90. angles 3 and 5 would be 45 because it's an isosceles right triangle meaning that 1 angle is 90 and that the total of the other two angles would be 90 as a triangle angle sum is 180 and since it's isosceles just divide 90 by 2 because the 2 angles are the same getting 45for angles 3 and 5.
13. the triangle includes 2 exterior angles so...360 divided by 8 = 45 (this is the measure of each exterior angle of the polygon)
45 x 2 cause as I said it includes 2 exterior angles to get 90. it's a triangle so 180 (the sum of angles in triangle) minus 90 to get 90. so 1 and 2 are both 45 and 3 is 90
