Question

If 2 triangles have the same height, the ratio of their areas is equal to the

• A. Ratio of any 2 sides
• B. Ratio of corresponding bases
• C. Ratio of heights
• D. 1

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Ratio of corresponding bases

$\frac{Areaoftriangle1}{Areaoftriangle2}$ =$\frac{\frac{1}{2}\times Base1\times height}{\frac{1}{2}\times Base2\times height}$= $\frac{base1}{base2}$
