Given :-
- Diagonals of a trapezium ABCD with AB || CD, intersect each other at point 'O' .
- AB = 2CD .
- ∆AOB area = 84 cm².
To Find :-
- Area of ∆COD = ?
Solution :-
from image we have,
→ ABCD is a trapezium .
→ AB ∣∣ DC .
now, in ∆AOB and ∆COD , we have,
→ ∠ABO = ∠CDO (Alternate angles.)
→ ∠BAO = ∠DCO (Alternate angles.)
→ ∠AOB = ∠COD (Vertically opposite angles.)
so,
→ ∆AOB ~ ∆COD (By AAA Similarity.)
now, we know that,
- If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of the area of both triangles is proportional to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.
then,
→ Ar.∆AOB : Ar.∆COD = AB² : CD²
→ ∆AOB / ∆COD = (AB/CD)²
given that, AB = 2CD
→ 84 / Ar.∆COD = (2CD/CD)²
→ 84 / Ar.∆COD = (2/1)²
→ 84 / Ar.∆COD = 4 / 1
→ Ar.∆COD = 21 cm². (Ans.)
Hence, Area of ∆COD will be 21 cm².
