The C.G. of a uniform rod lies at its middle point as shown in figure below.
The C.G. of a triangle lies at the point where all the three
medians intersect each other.
The C.G. of a rectangle (or a parallelogram or a square) lies at the
point where its diagonals intersect each other. It is also the point of
intersection of the middle points of the opposite sides.
The center of gravity of a circle lies at its centre.
