Download Solution PDFGiven:
ΔPQR ∼ ΔDEF
The sides of ΔPQR and ΔDEF are in the ratio 5 ∶ 6.
ar(PQR) = 75 cm2
Concepts used:
The ratio of area of similar triangles is equal to the square of the ratio of sides of corresponding triangles.
Calculation:
ΔPQR ∼ ΔDEF
ar(PQR)/ar(DEF) = (Side of ΔPQR/Side of ΔDEF)2
⇒ 75/ar(DEF) = (5/6)2
⇒ ar(DEF) = 108 cm2
∴ Area of ΔDEF is equal to 108 cm2.
