Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
In ΔABC, ∠A=90∘, AN ⊥ BC, BC= 12 cm and AC = 5 cm.
In ΔANC and ΔABC,
∠ACN=∠ACB (Common)
∠A=∠ANC (each 90°)
ΔANC ∼ΔABC (By AA similarity)
We know that the ratio of areas of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of squares of their corresponding sides.
Therefore,
ar(ΔANC)/ar(ΔABC) = (AC/BC)²
ar(ΔANC)/ar(ΔABC) = (5/12)²
ar(ΔANC)/ar(ΔABC) = 25/144
Hence,the ratio of the area of ΔANC and ΔABC is 25 : 144.
