What is the 10th step in the given proof?

Statement: All three lines share point P.

Reason: definition of midpoint

Statement: Two of the three medians share point P.

Reason: using point-slope formula

Statement: and are concurrent.

Reason: definition of concurrence

Statement: P lies on .

Reason: The coordinates of P satisfy the equation of .

Statement: Point P lies on and .

Reason: from above algebra

Respuesta :

As seen , what steps you have written  you just want to prove if in a triangle two medians have common point of intersection , a point P, then the third median will also pass through point P.

The point of intersection of medians is called Centroid.

The statement ahead of  :Statement: Point P lies on and .

Reason: from above algebra

Point P is the intersection of three medians which is  called Centroid of triangle.The Centroid divides the line from opposite vertex in the ratio of 2:1.
