Answer:
In ΔADH and ΔABF: DE and BC are parallel to each other as midpoint theorem.
∠ADH = ∠ABF (corresponding angles)
∠AHD = ∠AFB ( " )
∠DAH = ∠BAF (Common)
Hence, ΔADH ~ ΔABF
AD/ AB = DH/BF AD/2AD = DH/BF (AD = DB) BF = 2DH
(i) Similarly in ΔAEH & ΔAFC CF = 2EH
(ii) From (i) & (ii) DH = EH Similarly you can calculate for all the three sides,
Thus, G is the centroid of ΔDEF
