उत्तर

Let the corresponding sides of similar triangles be s1 and s2.

Let A1 and A2 be their corresponding areas.

s1 : s2 = 4 : 7   ...[Given]

∴ `(s_1)/(s_2) = 4/7`   ...(i)

`(A_1)/(A_2) = (s_1^2)/(s_2^2)`   ...[Theorem of areas of similar triangles]

`(A_1)/(A_2) = (s_1/s_2)^2`

`(A_1)/(A_2) = (4/7)^2`   ...[From (i)]

`(A_1)/(A_2) = 16/49`

∴ Ratio of areas of similar triangles = 16 : 49

In fig., PM = 10 cm, A(ΔPQS) = 100 sq. cm, A(ΔQRS) = 110 sq. cm, then NR?


ΔPQS and ΔQRS having seg QS common base.

Areas of two triangles whose base is common are in proportion of their corresponding `square`.

`(A(ΔPQS))/(A(ΔQRS)) = (square)/(NR)`,

`100/110 = (square)/(NR)`,

NR = `square` cm

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`
