Question

Based on the diagram can point D be the centroid of triangle ACF? Explain

Answer 1

No

Explanation:

the ratio between AD and DE is 3:1.

The geometric centroid (center of mass) of the polygon vertices of a triangle is the point D which is also the intersection of three triangle's medians.

The centroid theorem states that the centroid is 2/3 of the distance from each vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side.

Answer 2

3:1 Ur welcome

Explanation:

Yes, point D is the point of intersection of segments drawn from all three vertices.

Yes, DE is three-quarters of the length of the full segment.

No, DE should be longer than AD.

No, the ratio between AD and DE is 3:1
