asked 11/11/20Find the (x,y) coordinate
For these problems you need to follow these steps.
- Find the Midpoint for each side of the triangle
- Connect the Midpoints with two of the Medians
- Determine the slope intercept form of two of the Median lines
- Set the equations of the lines equal to each other to solve for the x point of intersection
- Put the x back into one of the line equations you found to solve for the y point of intersection. This is the (x,y) point of the Centroid.
3. Find the (x,y) coordinate of the Centroid.

Side "a" midpoint=1,3
b =-5,0
c =-2,-9
Slope=rise/run.
Slope side "a"=18.-6
