Question

ABC ~ PQR. If AB : PQ = 4:5,
find A(ABC): A(PQR).​

Answer 1

Answer:

since triangles are similar, ratio of each corresponding side of the two triangles will be 4:5.

Further, two sides are involved in multiplication for calculation of area, hence the ratio of areas of the two triangles will be

4/5*4/5

= 16/25

= 16:25
