Q4 of 40 Page 8

A triangle and a rhombus are on the same base and between the same parallels. Then the ratio of the area of the triangle to that of a rhombus is.

To Find: Ratio of area of the triangle to the area of a rhombus

Given: Triangle and rhombus are on the same base and between the same parallels.


Concept Used: If a triangle and a parallelogram are on the same base and between the same parallels, then the area of a triangle is equal to half the area of the parallelogram.


Explanation:


Area of triangle = 1/2 Area of rhombus



Hence, the Ratio of area of the triangle to the area of a rhombus is 1:2.
