In triangle ABC, point D is the centroid, and BD = 6. Find BE.

Given:

In triangle ABC, point D is the centroid, and BD = 6.

To find:

The measure of side BE.

Solution:

We know that the centroid divides each median in 2:1.

In the given figure BE is a median and point D is the centroid. It means point D divides the segment BE in 2:1.

Let BD and DE are 2x and x respectively.

We have, BD = 6 units.

Now,

Therefore, the measure of side BE is 9 units.

one set of data has more variation than the other. hope this !
