Answer:
given: P (-3, 1 ), Q (0, -2) Centroid C (0, 0)
to find third vertex
Step-by-step explanation:
C x, y = [(x1+x2+x3) / 3 , (y1+y2+y3) / 3]
C x = 0 = (-3 + 0 + x3) /3
=> 0 = (-3 + x3) / 3
=> 0*3 = (- 3 + x3)
=> 0 = - 3 + x3
=> x3 = 3 [ by transposing - 3 ]
Cy = 0 = (1 - 2 + y3) / 3
=> 0 = (- 1 + y3) / 3
=> 0*3 = -1 + y3
=> 0 = - 1 + y3
=> y3 = 1 [ by transposing - 1 ]
therefore third vertex is R (3, 1)
