a MWE on which to experiment, it's hard to be certain. A
couple of possibilities come to mind. One is to replace the
2x1 inner table with a multiline math formula (such as a
"gathered" environment). Another is to click in a cell in
the first column¸ click Edit > Table Settings (or right
click and do the equivalent), set a fixed width for the
first column and a vertical alignment of "Middle" in the
column settings dialog.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:.5in">What
I proposed above works. Put the cursor in the "Geometry" cell,
right click, select Settings..., and in the Column settings
section of the Table Settings tab set a fixed width for the
column. That enables the Vertical alignment control, which you
set to Middle. You might want to horizontally center as well;
that's up to you.<br>
I've attached a modified version of the MWE.<br>

That's true for any cell content, not just for graphics. To set a
vertical alignment in a column, you first have to fix the column
width.<br>
