To find the coordinates of point C in triangle ABC given the centroid G and the coordinates of points A and B, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Centroid Formula The centroid (G) of a triangle with vertices A, B, and C is given by the formula: \[ G = \left( \frac{x_1 + x_2 + x_3}{3}, \frac{y_1 + y_2 + y_3}{3}, \frac{z_1 + z_2 + z_3}{3} \right) \] where \(A(x_1, y_1, z_1)\), \(B(x_2, y_2, z_2)\), and \(C(x_3, y_3, z_3)\). ...
