Question

    If median AD of an equilateral ∆ABC is 24 cm and G is

    centroid. Find AG?
    A 12cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 14cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 16cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 10cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Meeting point of all medians is called as centroid. Always remember that centroid divided median in 2:1 So here AG: GD = 2:1 & AD = 24 cm So dividing 24 into 2:1 , AG = 2/3 of AD = 2/3 of  24 = 16 cm
