Question

The ratio of areas of two triangles having same height is 2:3.If the base of larger triangle is 12cm,then find the corresponding base of smaller triangle​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height be h.

Area of smaller to bigger triangle is 2:3

Base of larger triangle = 12 cm

Area of larger triangle = 1/2*b*h = 6h

According to question, the 3 part in 2:3 is 6h

Then, 1 part = 2h

Smaller triangle = 2 parts = 4h

Area of smaller triangle = 1/2*b*h = 4h

1/2*8*h = 4h

Base of smaller triangle = 8cm

Answer 2

Answer:

2x×3x=12

6x = 12

x= 2

Step-by-step explanation:

this is the answer
