Hi,

​Centroid:
The centroid of a triangle is the point through which all the mass of a triangular plate seems to act. Also known as its 'center of gravity' , 'center of mass' , or barycenter.

Orthocentre:
 The point where the three altitudes of a triangle intersect.  

Circumcentre:
The point where the three perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle meet

Incentre:
The incenter of a triangle or regular polygon is the point where the angle bisectors meet.

Locus:
A shape created by the set of points whose position satisfies a given set of rules.


Hope this helps you! Thumbs up!
