Centroid Calculator

Your details

Triangle uses the simple average formula. Polygon uses the signed-area (shoelace) method for accuracy. Points averages coordinates of disconnected locations.

Centroid found at (3.000, 1.333)

  • The centroid is at (3.0000, 1.3333).
  • The enclosed area of the shape is 12.0000 square units.
  • This result was computed from 3 points.
  • The centroid is the point where the shape would balance on a pin, and it lies inside every convex shape.

Next stepTo check your answer: each median of a triangle passes through this point, dividing it in a 2:1 ratio from vertex to midpoint.
