Given:

Point D is the centroid of Triangle ABC and DE = 9.

To find:

The measures of CD and CE.

Solution:

We know that, centroid is the intersection of medians and it divides each median in 2:1.

In triangle ABC, CE is a meaning and centroid D divided CE in 2:1. So,

Let the measures of CD and DE are 2x and x respectively.

DE = 9                (Given)

[tex]x=9[/tex]

Now,

[tex]CD=2x[/tex]

[tex]CD=2(9)[/tex]

[tex]CD=18[/tex]

And,

[tex]CE=CD+DE[/tex]

[tex]CE=18+9[/tex]

[tex]CE=27[/tex]

Therefore, the measure of CD is 18 units and the measure of CE is 27 units.

The measure of CD and CE are 18 and 27 respectively

From the given diagram, the following are true:

  • CD = 2DE

Given that DE = 9

CD = 2(9)

CD = 18

Similarly;

CE = CD + DE

CE = 18 + 9

CE = 27

Hence the measure of CD and CE are 18 and 27 respectively
