4. In triangle ABC, Z is the centroid. Given: AZ= 9 and CN= 5.5. A. What does it mean that Z is the centroid and what does it tell us about segments AN,BO, and CM? B. Calculate the value of AN C. Calculate the value of ZN D. Calculate the value of CB

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so you know what mean centroid of a triangle and how you can get it is the intersection point of what lines of triangle ?

OpenStudy (alexandrea.lane):

I know what centroid means but i don't know how to get it. @jhonyy9

OpenStudy (alexandrea.lane):

I can't figure out how to calculate the values.

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

do you see it now what intersection point of what lines will be O ?

OpenStudy (alexandrea.lane):

What?? @jhonyy9

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

what lines intersect there in this point what will be the centroid ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

lines perpendiculari to opposite side from an angle - yes ? what is the name of these style lines for a triangle ?

OpenStudy (alexandrea.lane):

I don't know D: @jhonyy9 None of this is making sense.

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

why ? what is the name of the same lines ? so altitude - how you think will be right ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

|dw:1453160766732:dw|

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so there is again divide 2 Alexa do you see it now that the altitude line is perpendicular to the opposite side yes ?

OpenStudy (alexandrea.lane):

I see that

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so than do you understand it now ? but sorry i dont see your posted image because i need upload it and my internet conection is slowly

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

do you can drawing it here too ?

OpenStudy (alexandrea.lane):

OpenStudy (alexandrea.lane):

@jhonyy9 I've tried everything to find the values but I can't understand it
