Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let one side of a triangle be x
then the corresponding side of this new triangle is 2x because it is doubled
sides of new triangle and given triangle are in proportion
∴given triangle is similar to new triangle
new triangle and the given triangle are similar triangles.
by using area of similar triangles theorem,
area of new triangle/area of given triangle=(2x/x)²
=4x²/x²
=4/1
∴ratio of area of new triangle and the given triangle=4:1
