In the figure `BC_|_AB, AD_|_AB,BC=4,AD=8`, then find `(A(DeltaABC))/(A(DeltaADB))`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`BC=4,AD=8`
…..(Given)
`DeltaABC` and `DeltaADB` have same base AB.
Area of triangles with equal base are proportional to their corresponding heights.
`:.(A(DeltaABC))/(A(DeltaADB))=(BC)/(AD)`
`:.(A(DeltaABC))/(A(DeltaADB))=4/8:.(A(DeltaABC))/(ADeltaADB))=1/2`
`(A(DeltaABC))/(A(DeltaADB))=1/2`
