Given:
Point D is the centroid of Triangle ABC and DE = 9.
To find:
The measures of CD and CE.
Solution:
We know that, centroid is the intersection of medians and it divides each median in 2:1.
In triangle ABC, CE is a meaning and centroid D divided CE in 2:1. So,
Let the measures of CD and DE are 2x and x respectively.
DE = 9 (Given)
Now,
And,
Therefore, the measure of CD is 18 units and the measure of CE is 27 units.
