If the mid-points of the sides of a triangle AB; BC; CA are D (1, 2, – 3), E (3, 0, 1) and F (–1, 1, – 4), then the centroid of the triangle ABC is ________.
Given:
Mid-points of triangle ABC are D(1,2,-3), E(3,0,1) & F(-1,1,-4).
Now, the centroid of triangle DEF = Centroid of triangle ABC ……. (from geometry of centroid)
Thus, centroid of triangle ABC,
G(1+3-1/3, 2+0+1/3, -3+1-4/3) ≡ G(1,1,-2)
