as shown in picture:  find locus of centroid of triangle:  1)when:B and C,are fixed and:A moves  on the circle′s  perimeter.  2)C,is fixed and A and B  are moving on  circle′s perimeter, and perimeter of  triangle is constant and equails to:5.

please check the question 2). it′s not  possible to have a triangle with   perimeter 5 in an circle with radius 1.

pleasecheckthequestion2).itsnotpossibletohaveatrianglewithperimeter5inancirclewithradius1.

(1)  r=CG=(2/3)R cos θ=(2/3)cos θ  or  x=(2/3)cos^2  θ=((cos 2θ+1)/3)  y=(2/3)cos θ sin θ=((sin 2θ)/3)  ⇒(x−(1/3))^2 +y^2 =((1/3))^2   ⇒the locus is a circle with radius (1/3)

(1)r=CG=23Rcosθ=23cosθorx=23cos2θ=cos2θ+13y=23cosθsinθ=sin2θ3(x13)2+y2=(13)2thelocusisacirclewithradius13

(2)  the locus of G is also a circle.
