Solution
Draw RE ⊥ TS, T-E-S
ΔRTP and ΔRPS have same height RE.
`(A(ΔRTP))/(A(ΔRPS)) = (TP)/(PS)` ...[Triangles having equal height]
`(A(ΔRTP))/(A(ΔRPS)) = 10/6` ...[Given]
∴ `(A(ΔRTP))/(A(ΔRPS)) = 5/3`

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`
