I think 3

OpenStudy (nikato):

do you have any more info given?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just the answer BG=3,ge=6

BUT I NEED THE STEPS

OpenStudy (nikato):

oops. i read the question wrong. BG is 1/3 of BE and GE is 2/3 of BE because of the defintion of centroid

OpenStudy (nikato):

OpenStudy (nikato):

so from the angle to the centroid is 2/3 the entire segment, whereas from the side to the centroid is just 1/3 of the entire segment. thats why BG=3 and GE=6
