Question

a centroid separates a median into two segments. which of the following is the ratio of the length of the shorter segment to the length of the longer segment length

Answer 1

The answer is 2:1.

The centroid separates the median, or the point from the midpoint of a side of a triangle with its opposite angle, at a ratio of 2:1, meaning that one segment is 1/3 the length of the median and the other segment is 2/3 the length of the median.
