Area of triangle DEF = 100 sq. cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given, triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF.
BC = 4 cm and EF = 5cm
Area of triangle ABC = 64 sq. cm
We know that the ratio of the areas of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of the squares of their corresponding sides.
So area of ABC / area of DEF = square of BC / square of EF
64 / x = 16 / 25
X = 25 * 64 / 16 = 100
Area of triangle DEF = 100 sq. cm.
