let the ratio be 3x and 4x respectively
area of triangle = 1/2 * base *height
108 = 1/2 *3x * 2x
108= 3x²
108/3 =x²
36 =x²
6=x
base =3*x
base =3*6
base= 18
height =2*x
height =2*6
height =12
area of triangle = 1/2 * base *height
108 = 1/2 *3x * 2x
108= 3x²
108/3 =x²
36 =x²
6=x
base =3*x
base =3*6
base= 18
