If the ratio of corresponding sides of two similar triangles is √3 ∶ √2 then what is the ratio of the area of the two triangles?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 3 : 2.
The area of the triangle is directly proportional to the square of the corresponding sides.
⇒ Ratio of the area of two triangles = (√3)2 ∶ (√2)2
⇒ 3 : 2
