ABC and DBC are two triangle on the same base BC .if AD intersect BC at O show that

ar(ABC)/ar(DBC)=AO/DO

Answered by admin @



Given:

ABC & DBC are two triangles on the same base BC

AD intersects BC at O

To show:

\frac{Ar (\triangle ABC)}{Ar (\triangle DBC)} = \frac{AO}{DO}

Solution:

Construction:- AP ⊥ BC and DQ ⊥ BC

In Δ APO and Δ DQO, we have

∠APO = ∠DQO = 90° .... [right angles]

∠AOP = ∠DOQ ..... [vertically opposite angles]

∴ Δ APO ~ Δ DQO ...... [By AA similarity]

We know that → the corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional to each other.

\frac{AP}{DQ} = \frac{AO}{DO} ...... (i)

Now, we have

\frac{Area (\triangle  ABC)}{Area (\triangle DBC)} = \frac{\frac{1}{2}\times AP\times BC}{\frac{1}{2}\times DQ\times BC}

cancelling the similar terms

\implies \frac{Area (\triangle  ABC)}{Area (\triangle DBC)} = \frac{ AP}{ DQ}

from (i), we get

\implies \frac{Area (\triangle  ABC)}{Area (\triangle DBC)} = \frac{ AP}{ DQ} = \frac{AO}{DO}

\implies \boxed{\bold{\frac{Area (\triangle  ABC)}{Area (\triangle DBC)} = \frac{AO}{DO}}}

Hence proved
