उत्तर

Let the areas of two similar triangles be A1, A2 and their corresponding sides be S1, S2 respectively.

∴ `"A"_1/"A"_2 = 144/49`    ...(i)[Given]

∴ by the theorem of areas of similar triangles,

∴ `"A"_1/"A"_2 = "S"_1^2/"S"_2^2`

∴ `144/49 = "S"_1^2/"S"_2^2`    ...[From (i)]

∴ by taking square root of both sides,

∴ `"S"_1/"S"_2 = 12/7` 

∴ The ratio of the corresponding sides of the given triangles is 12: 7.

In the figure, PQ ⊥ BC, AD ⊥ BC. To find the ratio of A(ΔPQB) and A(ΔPBC), complete the following activity.


Given: PQ ⊥ BC, AD ⊥ BC

Now, A(ΔPQB)  = `1/2 xx square xx square`

A(ΔPBC)  = `1/2 xx square xx square`

Therefore, 

`(A(ΔPQB))/(A(ΔPBC)) = (1/2 xx square xx square)/(1/2 xx square xx square)`

= `square/square`
