Problem Statement

Let ABCA B C be a triangle in the xyx y plane, where BB is at the origin (0,0)(0,0). Let BCB C be produced to DD such that BC:CD=1:1,CAB C: C D=1: 1, C A be produced to EE such that CA:AE=1:2C A: A E=1: 2 and ABA B be produced to FF such that AB:BF=1:3A B: B F=1: 3. Let G(32,24)G(32,24) be the centroid of the triangle ABCA B C and KK be the centroid of the triangle DEFD E F. Find the length GKG K.
