Given:
- ∆ABC and ∆PQR are similar
- AB/BC = PQ/QR = AC/PR
- angle A = angle P
- angle B = angle Q
- angle C = angle R
Let AD and PM be the medians of ∆ABC and ∆PQR respectively.
TO PROVE: AD²/PM² = ar( ∆ABC ) / ar( ∆PQR )
PROOF
In ∆ABD and ∆PQM,
angle B = angle Q ( given )
AB/PQ = BC/QR
= 2BD/2QM [ Since Median bisects the side ]
AB/PQ = BD/QM
•°• By SAS criteria ,
∆ABD ~ ∆PQM
•°• AB/PQ = AD/PM --(1) ( C.P.S.T )
We know Ratio of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of their corresponding sides.
•°• ar(∆ABC) \ ar(∆PQR) = AB² / PQ²
ar(∆ABC) \ ar(∆PQR) = AD² / PM² [ Since AB/PQ = AD/PM from eq.(1) ]
Hence, Proved.
