Q1 of 24 Page 296

G is the centriod of triangle ABC; if area of GBC is 12 sq cm, then the area of ABC is


Given: area of GBC is 12 sq cm


As we know if three medians AD, BE and CF of a ΔABC intersect one another at the point G (centroid) then,


Area of ΔABC = 3 × Δ BGC


⇒ Area of ΔABC = 3 × 12


⇒ Area of ΔABC = 36 sq. cm


Option (C) ic correct.
