SSC CGL - 09 Sep 2024 - Shift 3 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q70

Two triangles EFG and HIJ are congruent. If the area of ΔEFG is 124 cm2, then the area of ΔHIJ will be:

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 124 cm2.

Given that, ΔEFG ≅ ΔHIJ

And area of ΔEFG = 124 cm2

When two triangles are congruent, the length of their sides are equal and the measure of corresponding angles are also equal, i.e. in congruent triangles the measure of area and perimeter is equal.

So, the area of ΔHIJ = area of ΔEFG

⇒ Area of ΔHIJ = 124

Hence the required answer is 124 cm2.
