Is there a relationship between the distance from to a vertex and the distance from that vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side?. xtension epeat teps 1 through with triangles of different shapes and sizes and complete a table like the one in xercise 1. o your results differ? xplain. 206 hapter 4 riangle elationships

2 4.6 edians of a riangle Goal Identify medians in triangles. Key Words median of a triangle centroid cardboard triangle will balance on the end of a pencil if the pencil is placed at a particular point on the triangle. Finding balancing points of objects is important in engineering, construction, and science. median of a triangle is a segment from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side. median median median X 1 raw a edian In, draw a median from to its opposite side. 4 6 olution he side opposite a is &*. Find the midpoint of &*, and label it. hen draw a segment from point to point. &* is a median of. 4 raw a edian opy the triangle and draw a median edians of a riangle 207

3 he following theorem tells you that the three medians of a triangle intersect at one point. his point is called the centroid of the triangle. HO 4.9 Intersection of edians of a riangle Words he medians of a triangle intersect at the centroid, a point that is two thirds of the distance from each vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side.
