It is known from euclidean geometry that the medians of a


Question: It is known from Euclidean geometry that the medians of a triangle (lines drawn from a vertex to the mid-point of the opposite side) all meet at a single point P, and that P is two-thirds of the distance along each median from the vertex through which it passes. If the vertices A, B, and C of a triangle have the respective position vectors a, b, and c, show that the position vector of P is (1/3)(a + b + c).
