Question

Find the centrroid of the triangle with the given vertices F(1, 5), G(-2, 7) and H(-6, 3)

Answer 1

$\qquad \textit{Centroid of a Triangle} \\\\ \left(\cfrac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3}~~,\cfrac{y_1+y_2+y_3}{3}~~ \right)\quad \begin{cases} F(\stackrel{x_1}{1},\stackrel{y_1}{5})\\\\ G(\stackrel{x_2}{-2},\stackrel{y_2}{7})\\\\ H(\stackrel{x_3}{-6},\stackrel{y_3}{3}) \end{cases} \\\\\\ \left( \cfrac{1-2-6}{3}~~,~~\cfrac{5+7+3}{3} \right)\implies \left( \cfrac{-7}{3}~~,~~\cfrac{15}{3} \right)\implies \left( -2\frac{1}{3}~~,~~5 \right)$
