Medians and Centroid of a Triangle 2

In this activity, you will discovery the properties of median and the properties of the point of concurrency of the three medians of a triangle.
Use the Applet to answer the questions below. 1. Determine if points D, E, F are midpoints. Explain. 2. Name the three medians of the triangle. 3. Name the point were the three medians meet. Which point of concurrency is it? 4. Choose a set triangle ABC. Take a screen capture of the image. What are the following measures? AG = ________ CG = ____________ BG = ______________ GD = ________ GF = ____________ GE = ______________ AD = ________ CF = ____________ BE = ______________ 5. Determine the following ratios: AG to AD: ________ CG to CF: __________ BG to BE: ____________ GD to AD: _________ GF to CF: __________ GE to BE: ____________ 6. What conclusions can we make about the centroid?
