the sides of equilateral triangle angle XYZ And angle PQR are 12 cm and 8 cm respectively. the ratio of the areas of angle PQR and angle XYZ is
Answers
Answer:
We know that the ratio of the areas of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of the squares of the corresponding sides.
ar (AABC) BC2 64 BC2 ar(AP QR) QR² 121 (15.4)²
8 11 BC 15.4
8 x 15.4 11 ⇒BC = = 11.2cm

Given : the sides of equilateral triangle ΔXYZ and Δ PQR are 12 cm and 8 cm respectively
To Find : ratio of the areas of Δ PQR and ΔXYZ
Solution:
Note that all Equilateral triangles are similar to each other.
All the sides and angles of a equilateral triangle are equal
Equilateral triangles are similar as per AAA similarity
equilateral triangle ΔXYZ and Δ PQR
=> ΔXYZ ~ Δ PQR
Ratio of areas of similar triangle = ( ratio of corresponding sides)²
=> Ar ΔPQR / Ar ΔXYZ = ( PQ/XY)²
=> Ar ΔPQR / Ar ΔXYZ = (8/12)²
=> Ar ΔPQRZ / Ar ΔXYZ = ( 2/3)²
=> Ar ΔPQRZ / Ar ΔXYZ = 4/9
ratio of the areas of Δ PQR and ΔXYZ is 4 : 9
