  2. Median of a triangle • Starts at a vertex and divides a side into two congruent segments (midpoint).

  3. Centroid of the triangle • The point of concurrency of the three medians of a triangle. • Always lies inside the triangle!

  4. A C B Always Inside!

  5. Median formula • The medians of a triangle intersect at a point that is in a 2:1 ratio. • From vertex to centroid=2 • Centroid to side=1
