Is it true the centroid of a triangle is the center of gravity for a triangular region?
Yes.
What is the point of concurrency of the medians of a triangle that is also called the center of gravity?
The Centroid
What is the name of that radius which passes through the center of gravity?
Centre of area of a triangle is the centre point for a circumscribed radius which will pass through all 3 vertices of the triangle.
What is a of a triangle is a segment joining a vertix and the midpoint of the side opposite the vertex?
This line is called the bisector (German Halbierende, Dutch bissectrice, Swedish bisektris).In an isosceles triangle the bisector of the side opposite the unequal angle is also perpendicular to that side.In an equilateral triangle all bisectors are perpendicular to the opposite sides.The point in which all bisectors meet in a triangle is called its barycenter (English from Greek meaning "center of gravity") and if the triangle were made of a homogeneous material of infinitesimal height (that is, if it were two-dimensional) it would be indeed its center of gravity.
What is the center of mass of an equilateral triangle?
Center of mass of an equilateral triangle is located at its geometric center (centroid).
