Q1
The coordinates of the centroid of a triangle with vertices at (1, 2), (3, 4), and (5, 6) are:
  1. (3, 4)
  2. (2, 3)
  3. (4, 5)
  4. (3, 5)

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

The coordinates of the centroid of a triangle with vertices at (1, 2), (3, 4), and (5, 6) are:
  • Step 1: Identify the coordinates of the triangle's vertices. They are (1, 2), (3, 4), and (5, 6).
  • Step 2: To find the x-coordinate of the centroid, add the x-coordinates of the vertices: 1 + 3 + 5.
  • Step 3: Calculate the sum of the x-coordinates: 1 + 3 + 5 = 9.
  • Step 4: Divide the sum of the x-coordinates by 3 (the number of vertices): 9 / 3 = 3.
  • Step 5: To find the y-coordinate of the centroid, add the y-coordinates of the vertices: 2 + 4 + 6.
  • Step 6: Calculate the sum of the y-coordinates: 2 + 4 + 6 = 12.
  • Step 7: Divide the sum of the y-coordinates by 3: 12 / 3 = 4.
  • Step 8: Combine the x and y coordinates to get the centroid: (3, 4).
