Proved that ar (triangle PQS) :ar( triangle PRS=l:m

Step-by-step explanation:

QS  =  (L/(L + M) ) * QR

RS  =  (M/(L + M) ) * QR

Let say PA is altitude at QR

Area of Δ PQR  = (1/2) QR  *  PA    

Area of Δ PQS  = (1/2) QS  *  PA    = (1/2)  (L/(L + M) ) * QR * PA

Area of Δ PRS  = (1/2) RS  *  PA    = (1/2)  (M/(L + M) ) * QR * PA

Area of Δ PQS : Area of Δ PRS =  (1/2)  (L/(L + M) ) * QR * PA :  (1/2)  (M/(L + M) ) * QR * PA

= L : M

Hence proved that

ar (triangle PQS) :ar( triangle PRS=l:m
