Question

    If median AD of an equilateral ∆ABC is 15 cm and G is

    centroid. Find GD?
    A 2cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 4cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 3cm Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 5cm 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 = 15 cm So dividing 15 into 2:1 , GD = 1/3 of AD = 1/3 of  15 = 5 cm
