    The altitudes of two similar triangles are 4 cm and 6 cm. If the area of one triangle is\[\text{36 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\], what is the area of the other?

    A)  \[\text{16}\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\]                                   

    B)  \[\text{36}\,\text{c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\]

    C)  \[\text{49 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\]                                   

    D)  \[\text{25 c}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     If \[d=\frac{1}{5}\], then\[5,\frac{26}{5},\frac{27}{5},........\frac{39}{5},8\]where\[{{S}_{14}}=\frac{14}{2}\left[ 2\left( \frac{26}{5} \right)+13\left( \frac{1}{5} \right) \right]\]and DQ are the corresponding altitudes. \[=\frac{14}{2}\left[ \frac{52+13}{5} \right]=91\]Area of the other triangle\[={{\left[ \frac{m(m+1)}{2} \right]}^{2}}=3025\]
