Question

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

Solution

ΔPQS and ΔQRS having seg QS common base.

Areas of two triangles whose base is common are in proportion of their corresponding \[\boxed{\text{heights}}\].

`(A(ΔPQS))/(A(ΔQRS))` = \[\frac{{\boxed{PM}}}{{{NR}}}\],

`100/110` = \[\frac{{\boxed{10}}}{{{NR}}}\],

∴ NR = `(110 xx 10)/100`

∴ NR = \[\boxed{11}\] 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`
