Centre gravity related to the distribution of mass. So, if nonuniform distribution mass occurs in a triangle. Then, the centre of gravity does not coincide with its geometrical centre. The geometrical centre is simply the intersection of meridians of the triangle.

A is the correct answer.
I have drawn right angle triangle in solidworks. I have found the same point for C.G. And medians intersection (tried various cases but the same result).
So it is A.

The geometrical centre is the same as cg for symmetrical objects like circles and squares, not for right-angle triangles.

The Centre of gravity is defined for 3D objects. Not for 2D. So, Option B is correct.
