Answer:

Take an example in a triangle:

The orthocenter is the intersection point of 3 altitudes.

The centroid is the intersection point of 3 medians.

The circumcenter is the intersection point of 3 bisectors.

Centroid, orthocenter, and circumcenter are collinear.

Hope this helps!

Xander spends most of his time with his 10 closest friends. He has known 4 of his 10 friends since kindergarten. If he is going

Liula [17]

Note that there's a strict order here -> 2 close friends, then 1 non-close friend.

So, picking in order:
probability of picking the first close friend: 4/10
probability of picking the second close friend: 3/9
probability of picking the first non-close friend: 6/8

So, we get 4/10 * 3/9 * 6/8 = 1/10.
