Triangle typeIsosceles

Centroid G = (3.0000, 1.3333)

  • The centroid G is at (3.0000, 1.3333), the exact geometric center of the triangle.
  • This is a isosceles triangle. Two medians are equal in length because two sides are equal.
  • The triangle has area 12.0000 square units. The centroid divides it into three smaller triangles of exactly equal area (4.0000 each).
  • Median lengths range from 4.0000 to 4.9244. The centroid lies exactly 2/3 of the way along each median from the vertex.

Next stepThe centroid is the balance point: a thin triangular plate of uniform density balances perfectly on a pin placed here.
