Find the Centroid on a Coordinate Plane SCULPTURE An artist is designing a sculpture that balances a triangle on top of a pole. In the artist’s design on the coordinate plane, the vertices are located at (1, 4), (3, 0), and (3, 8). What are the coordinates of the point where the artist should place the pole under the triangle so that it will balance? Analyze You need to find the centroid of the triangle. This is the point at which the triangle will balance. Example 3
Find the Centroid on a Coordinate Plane Formulate Graph and label the triangle with vertices at (1, 4), (3, 0), and (3, 8). Use the Midpoint Theorem to find the midpoint of one of the sides of the triangle. The centroid is two-thirds the distance from the opposite vertex to that midpoint. Determine Graph the triangle and label the vertices A, B, and C. Example 3
Find the midpoint D of BC. Find the Centroid on a Coordinate Plane Graph point D. Example 3
Notice that is a horizontal line. The distance from D(3, 4) to A(1, 4) is 3 – 1 or 2 units. Find the Centroid on a Coordinate Plane Example 3
The centroid P is the distance. So,the centroid is (2) or units to the right of A. The coordinates are . Find the Centroid on a Coordinate Plane P Example 3
Answer: The artist should place the pole at the point Justify Check the distance of the centroid from point D(3, 4). The centroid should be (2) or units to the left of D. So, the coordinates of the centroid is . 1 2 __ __ 3 3 Find the Centroid on a Coordinate Plane Example 3
Find the Centroid on a Coordinate Plane Evaluate: Any side could have been used to find the centroid. Using all three sides is a simple way to check the solution. Point P appears to be in the middle of the triangle, so the answer is reasonable. Example 3
