Problem: How to find the centroid of a triangle whose vertices are formed by (2, 7),(3, -1),(-5, 6)

$(2,7),(3,-1),(-5,6),$

Solutions:

The formula for finding the centroid or median of a triangle whose vertices are
$(x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2),(x_3,y_3),$ is $left(frac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3},frac{y_1+y_2+y_3}{3}right),$
Applying the formula, we get

$left(frac{2+3-5}{3},frac{7-1+6}{3}right),$
$left (0,4right),$

Therefore, the centroid of the triangle formed is at P(0, 4).
