Triangle Centroid Calculator

Find the centroid coordinates from three vertex coordinates.

Vertex 1 X

Vertex 1 Y

Vertex 2 X

Vertex 2 Y

Vertex 3 X

Vertex 3 Y

Formula

G = ((x1+x2+x3)/3, (y1+y2+y3)/3)

The centroid is the arithmetic mean of the three vertices. It is the center of mass of a uniform triangular plate.

Examples

(0,0), (6,0), (3,4)

(1,1), (5,1), (3,5)

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the centroid of a triangle?

The centroid is the point where the three medians intersect. It divides each median in ratio 2:1.

How is the centroid calculated?

G = ((x1+x2+x3)/3, (y1+y2+y3)/3), the average of the three vertices.
