What is the triangle made of?

 

Is the masses at the corner or is it a triangular plane? just for simplicity and clarity.

Haven't you learned about centroid of triangle?

The center of mass... you mean the centroid? That can be calculated using an integral, I studied this just recently in Engineering Mechanics, I had the chance to learn how it was derived in my Calculus course.

 

But if you just want to know the centroid of a triangle... the intersection point of the 3 medians is the center of mass.
