Question

in triangle trs, vz = 6 inches. what is rz? 3 inches 6 inches 12 inches 18 inches

Explanation:

Step1: Recall centroid property

The centroid of a triangle divides each median in a 2:1 ratio. Here, point Z is the centroid of triangle TRS and RV is a median. So, RZ = 2VZ.

Step2: Substitute the value of VZ

Given VZ = 6 inches. Then RZ=2×6.
RZ = 12 inches

Answer:

C. 12 inches
