The centroid of a triangle is the point of intersection of the medians and divides each median in the ratio 2:1
Yes that is correct I'm in Geometry myself and we just learned this, it is called the Centroid because it divides each median in a 2:1 ratio
2/3 of the median is between the centroid and the vertex, 1/3 between the centroid and the side.
Displacement and Rotation of a Geometrical FigureObjective:To study between different points of a geometrical figure when it is displacement and/or rotated. Enhance familiarity with co-ordinate geometry.Description:1. A cut out of a geometrical figure such as a triangle is made and placed on a rectangular sheet of paper marked with X and Y-axis.2. The co-ordinates of the vertices of the triangle and its centroid are noted.3. The triangular cut out is displaced (along x-axis, along y-axis or along any other direction.)4. The new co-ordinates of the vertices and the centroid are noted again.5. The procedure is repeated, this time by rotating the triangle as well as displacing it. The new co-ordinate of vertices and centroid are noted again.6. Using the distance formula, distance between the vertices of the triangle are obtained for the triangle in original position and in various displaced and noted positions.7. Using the new co-ordinates of the vertices and the centroids, students will obtain the ratio in which the centroid divides the medians for various displaced and rotated positions of the triangles.Result:Students will verify that under any displacement and rotation of a triangle the displacement between verticals remain unchanged, also the centroid divides the medians in ratio 2:1 in all cases.Conclusion:In this project the students verify (by the method of co-ordinate geometry) What is obvious geometrically, named that the length of a triangle do not change when the triangle is displaced or rotated. This project will develop their familiarity with co-ordinates, distance formula and section formula of co-ordinate geometry.When the triangle cut out is kept at Position (1 Quadrant) as shown in Fig: 4.1 following fortification are made:Vertices of triangle are A (3, 6), B (1, 3), C (6, 3).
If an equilateral triangle and a square have equal perimeters, then the ratio of the area of the triangle to the area of the square is 1:3.

The centroid of a triangle is the point of intersection of its three medians. Each median of a triangle connects a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side. The centroid divides each median into two segments with a ratio of 2:1, closer to the vertex.

2/3 of the median is between the centroid and the vertex, 1/3 between the centroid and the side.

Either diagonal of a parallelogram divides the parallelogram into two triangles of equal areas. Thus area of triangle abd = half that of the parallelogram abcd. The required ratio is 1 / 2.
the ratio of the perimeter of triangle ABC to the perimeter of triangle JKL is 2:1. what is the perimeter of triangle JKL?
Scalene Triangle
There are 2 triangles in a square so the ratio to square and triangle is 2 to 1
ZT=1/3 of CT. Therefore, CT=5
To find the centroid of a tetrahedron with a given density function, you need to calculate the average position of the tetrahedron's mass in each coordinate direction. This can be determined by integrating the density function over the volume of the tetrahedron and dividing by the total mass. The centroid coordinates can then be calculated using these average positions.
