A
The medians of a triangle meet at a point
B
The point where the medians intersect divides the median is a ratio of 1:2
C
The point where the medians intersect divides the median is a ratio of 2:1
D
The point where the medians intersect is 1/3 of the way from the vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side
E
The point where the medians intersect is 2/3 of the way from the vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side
