CCSS IP Math II 5.6.4 Example 4

Using [math]\triangle ABC[/math] from Example 3, which has vertices [math]A (–2, 4)[/math], [math]B (5, 4)[/math], and [math]C (3, –2)[/math], verify that the centroid, [math]X (2, 2)[/math], is [math]\frac{2}{3}[/math] the distance from each vertex.

[list=1] [*]Identify the known information. [*]Use the distance formula to show that point [math]X (2, 2)[/math] is [math]\frac{2}{3}[/math] the distance from each vertex. [/list]
