उत्तर

Let the height of the larger triangle be h1 and that of the smaller triangle be `h_2`

The ratio of the areas of two triangles with common base is equal to the ratio of their corresponding heights.

`(A("Larger"triangle))/(A("Smaller"triangle)) = h_1/h_2`

`:. 6/5 = 9/h_2`  ...(Substituting the given values)

`∴ 6 xx h_2 = 9 xx 5`

`:. h_2 = (9 xx 5)/6 = 15/2`

`:. h_2= 7.5 cm`

The corresponding height of the smaller traingles of 7.5 cm.

ΔPQS and ΔQRS having seg QS common base.

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

Prove that, The areas of two triangles with the same height are in proportion to their corresponding bases. To prove this theorem start as follows:

  1. Draw two triangles, give the names of all points, and show heights.
  2. Write 'Given' and 'To prove' from the figure drawn.

If ΔABC ∼ ΔDEF, length of side AB is 9 cm and length of side DE is 12 cm, then find the ratio of their corresponding areas.


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`
