Question

given triangleABC~triangle PQR if AB/PQ=1/3 then find as triangleABC/TrianglePQR

Answer 1

GIVEN:
ΔABC ~ Δ PQR & AB/PQ = 1/3
ar(ΔABC)/ar( Δ PQR )= AB²/ PQ²
[The ratio of the areas of two similar triangles is equal to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.]
ar(ΔABC)/ar( Δ PQR ) = 1²/3²
[Given =AB/PQ = ⅓]
ar(ΔABC)/ar( Δ PQR ) = 1/9
Hence, the Area of ΔABC/Area of ΔPQR = 1/9
