1.	Tringle ABC ~triangle PQR,if AB/PQ=1/3, Then find area of triangle ABC/area of triangle PQR
Answer» 1/9 Ur wlcm? Thnx dude..☺☺ The ratio of the area of two similar triangles is equal to the square of there corresponding side (theorm 6.6)therefore the answer is the square of 1/3 which is 1/9 Ar(ABC)/ar(PQR)=(AB)2/(PQ)2 Oh....got it...thnx so much..??? By the theorem which states : area of similar triangles is equal to........... Can u explain? 1/9
