Answer:
the centroid of the triangle is 1.3 cm (approx.) away from each vertex along their median.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it's an equilateral triangle of side 3cm each
We draw a median through one of the vertex which bisects the opposite side..
Using Pythagoras theorem,
3^2 = (1.5)^2 + (length of the median)^2
Thus length of the median = 2.6(approx.)
Thus the centroid of the triangle is (2.6/2)= 1.3 cm away from each vertex along their median.
Simply it's right on its centre.
Hope it helped...
