Let G (x , y) be he centroid of Δ PQR

Coordinates of G are ,

G (x , y) = G`((5 + 3 +1)/3 , (1 + 4 + 1)/3)`

= G (3 , 2)

Find the coordinates of point P where P is the midpoint of a line segment AB with A(–4, 2) and B(6, 2).

Solution :

Suppose, (–4, 2) = (x1, y1) and (6, 2) = (x2, y2) and co-ordinates of P are (x, y).

∴ According to the midpoint theorem,

x = `(x_1 + x_2)/2 = (square + 6)/2 = square/2 = square`

y = `(y_1 + y_2)/2 = (2 + square)/2 = 4/2 = square`

∴  Co-ordinates of midpoint P are `square`.
