To determine centre of gravity for a triangular lamina, make three fine holes a, b, c near its edges. After that, suspend it from hole a along with a plumb line. Ensure that the lamina is freely suspended. When it comes to rest, draw straight line ad along the plumb line. Repeat the experiment by suspending the lamina through hole ‘b’ and then through hole ‘c’. This gives us two straight lines, be and cf respectively. The three lines ad, be and cf intersect each other at a common point G. This common point G is the position of the centre of gravity of triangular lamina.
