Let the trangle ABC is placed in such a way in the co ord plane so that the mid point of the side BC is the origin
point A=1kg
point B=2kg
point C=3kg
hence the X co ord is=[(2×(-1/2)+(3×1/2)+(1×0)]/(2+3+1)=1/12
The Y co ord is=[(2×0)+(3×0)+(1×√3/2)]/(1+2+3)=√3/12
Hence the COM is At=( 1/12 , √3/12)
