what is the formula (x1 + x2 +x3)/3 , (y1 + y2 + y3)/3 used for calculating in co-ordinate geometry

Dear student,

We can calculate the centroid of the triangle by taking the average of the x coordinates and the y coordinates of all the three vertices. So, the centroid formula can be mathematically expressed as G(x, y) = ((x1 + x2 + x3)/3, (y1 + y2 + y3)/3).
