Question

In ∆DEF, DN, EO, FM are medians and point P is the centroid. Find the following

If OE = 36 then EP = ?

Sum

Solution

Given DN, EO, FM are medians.

∴ FN = EN

DO = FO

EM = DM

If OE = 36

then `"EP"/"PO" = 2/1`

`"EP"/2` = PO

OE = OP + PE

36 = `"PE"/2 + "PE"`

36 = `"PE"/2 + (2"PE")/2`

36 = `(3"PE")/2`

PE = `(36 xx 2)/3`

PE = 24
