In the given figure, △ABC∼△PQR and AM and PN are medians of △ABC and △PQR respectively. Then Area of △ ABCArea of △ PQR = _____
We are given two triangles ABC and PQR such that △ ABC ∼ △ PQR.
So, ABPQ=BCQR=ACPR
ABPQ=2BM2QN=BMQN
⇒ABPQ=BMQN
∠ B = ∠ Q
∴△ABM∼△ PQN (by SAS similarity criterion)
⇒ABPQ=AMPN
So , area of △ ABCareaof △PQR=AB2PQ2=AM2PN2
