The centroid of the triangle ABC is equal to (3,5).
The centroid of a triangle divides the median in the ratio 2:1.
Let the coordinates of the centroid be equal to (x,y).
The centroid will divided the line between A (1,3) and D(4,6) in the ratio 2:1.
Using the section formula to find the coordinates of the centroid -
x = (m1x2 + m2x1)/(m1+m2)
y = (m1y2 + m2y1)/(m1+m2)
Put the values x1 = 1 , x2 = 4 , y1 = 3 , y2 = 6 , m1 = 2 , m2 = 1 to get the coordinates of the centroid.
x = 8 + 1 / 3 = 3
y = 12 + 3 / 3 = 5
