How do you solve centroids?

Answer 1

To solve for centroids, you first need to find the coordinates of the points that define the shape or object you're analyzing. For a set of points, the centroid (or geometric center) can be calculated by averaging the x-coordinates and the y-coordinates separately: ( C_x = \frac{\sum x_i}{n} ) and ( C_y = \frac{\sum y_i}{n} ), where ( n ) is the number of points. For more complex shapes, you can use calculus to integrate the shape's coordinates over its area. The centroid represents the balance point of the shape or distribution of points.
