Let space straight G space be space the space centroid space of space triangle space ABC.
In space triangles space BEC space and space BFC comma
angle straight B equals angle straight C equals 60 degree
BC equals BC
BF equals CE

Similarly comma space triangle CAF approximately equal to triangle CAD
rightwards double arrow CF equals AD space space space space space space space.... left parenthesis ii right parenthesis
From space left parenthesis straight i right parenthesis space and space left parenthesis ii right parenthesis comma
AD equals BE equals CF
rightwards double arrow 2 over 3 AD equals 2 over 3 BE equals 2 over 3 CF
rightwards double arrow GA equals GB equals GC
