In ∆ABC, B – D – C and BD = 7, BC = 20, then find the following ratio.
`(A(triangleABD))/(A(triangleABC))`

Solution
In ∆ABC, B – D – C and BD = 7, BC = 20
As ΔABD and ∆ABC have the same height.
∴ Areas of triangles with the same height are proportional to their corresponding bases.
`(A(triangleABD))/(A(triangleABC)) = (BD)/(BC)`
= `7/20`
