Question

The base of triangle M is four times the base of tri-

angle N, while the height of triangle N is half the
height of triangle M. The area of triangle M is how
many times that of triangle N ?

Answer 1

two times

Explanation:

ΔM: let 'h' = height; let '4b' = base

ΔN: let 'h/2' = height; let 'b' = base

Area (ΔM) = 2bh

Area (ΔN) = bh
