In the diagram, GB = 2x + 3..
zaharov [31]

<u>Answer-</u>

\boxed{\boxed{GB=15\ units}}

<u>Solution-</u>

From the attachment,

AD = AE, so FA is a median.

BD = BF, so BE is a median.

CF = CE, so DC is a median.

And G is the centroid.

From the properties of centroid, we know that

The centroid divides each median in a ratio of 2:1

So,

\Rightarrow FG:AG=2:1

\Rightarrow \dfrac{FG}{AG}=\dfrac{2}{1}

\Rightarrow FG=2\times AG

\Rightarrow 5x=2\times (x+9)

\Rightarrow 5x=2x+18

\Rightarrow 3x=18

\Rightarrow x=6

So, GB will be 2(6)+3=15 units

The area of a triangle is 24sq inches. If the base of the triangle is 6 inches, what is the height?
Helen [10]

Answer:

8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a triangle, we use the formula

A = 1/2 bh where b is the length of the base and h is the height

A = 24 and b = 6

24 = 1/2 (6) * h

24 =3h

Divide each side by 3

24/3 = 3h/3

8 =h

The height is 8 inches
