Find the centroid of the triangle whose vertices are the points A (8 , 4) B (1 , 3) and C (3 , -1).
Given vertices are the points A (8 , 4) B (1 , 3) and C (3 , -1).
Centroid of the triangle = (x1 +x2 + x3)/3, (y1+y2+y3)/3
= (8+1+3)/3, (4+3-1)/3
= 12/3, 6/3
= (4, 2)
So, the centroid of the triangle is (4, 2).
(4,2)
