Step 1
A centroid (G) is the point where the three medians of the triangle intersect. A median of a triangle is a line segment joining a vertex to the midpoint of the opposing side. The centroid divides each median into two segments, which are in the ratio 2:1, with the Show more…

B, D, and F are the midpoints of each side, and G is the centroid. Find the following lengths: 1. If BG = 5, find GE and BE: GE = BE = 2. If CG = 16, find GF and CF: GF = CF = 3. If AD = 30, find AG and GD: AG = GD = 4. If GF = X, find GC and CF: GC = CF = 5. If AG = 9X, GD = 5X - 1, find X and AD: X = AD=
