Base of a triangle is 10 cm and height is 4cm. Base of another triangle is 12 cm and height is 5.cm Find the ratio of areas of these triangles.
1️⃣ 2/3
2️⃣ 3/2
3️⃣ 40/12
4️⃣ 10/60
Answers
Answer:
Area of 1st triangle =1/2 into B into H
1/2 into 10 into 4 = 5 into 4 = 20
Area of 2nd triangle = 1/2 into 12 into 5 = 6 into 5 = 30
Ratio of both triangles = Area of 1st triangle /Area of second triangle
20/30 = 2/3

Solution :-
we know that,
- Area of a ∆ = (1/2) * Base * Perpendicular height .
So, given that,
→ ∆1 Base = 10 cm
→ ∆1 perpendicular height = 4 cm .
then,
→ ∆1 Area = (1/2) * Base * Perpendicular height = (1/2) * 10 * 4 = 20 cm²
similarly,
→ ∆2 Base = 12 cm
→ ∆2 perpendicular height = 5 cm .
then,
→ ∆2 Area = (1/2) * Base * Perpendicular height = (1/2) * 12 * 5 = 30 cm²
therefore,
→ Area ∆1 : Area ∆2 = 20 cm² : 30 cm²
→ Area ∆1 : Area ∆2 = 20 : 30
→ Area ∆1 : Area ∆2 = 2 * 10 : 3 * 10
→ Area ∆1 : Area ∆2 = 2 : 3 (1) (Ans.)
Hence, the ratio of areas of these triangles is equal to 2 : 3 .
