Question

anonymous · Answer

assuming they start from vertices, to meet at centre then there are different possibilites
they can meet at incentres also or at centroid too

anonymous · Answer

in either case it would be along a line  or  a ray

it can't be a ray ... they aren't moving to center. they are moving to each other ( the other snail)
