Question

in triangle abc PQ is parallel to ab from the figure write three pairs of triangle of equal area​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, AB=3AP...(1)

we can prove the two triangles

are similar using

1) AA (Angle-Angle)

2) SSS (side-side-side)

3) SAS (side-Angle-side)

In this case.

∠A is common to both the

ΔABC and ΔAPQ

Also, ∠B≅∠P (corresponding angles)

∴ using AA theorem it is proved

that ΔABC∼ΔAPQ

[Note :- Similarity sign is ∼]

Therm : The two similar Δs , the ratio of

their area is the square of the

ratio of their sides.

Hence.
