    If \[\Delta ABC\tilde{\ }\Delta PQR,\] area of \[\Delta ABC=81c{{m}^{2}}\] and area of \[\Delta PQR=121c{{m}^{2}}\] and altitude \[\text{AD}=\text{9 cm},\]then \[PM=\]

    A) 10 cm

    B) 11 cm

    C) 12 cm

    D) 15 cm

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b]  \[\frac{ar(\Delta ABC)}{ar(\Delta PQR)}=\frac{A{{D}^{2}}}{P{{M}^{2}}}\]
    \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\frac{81}{121}=\frac{{{9}^{2}}}{P{{M}^{2}}}\,\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,\,PM=11\,cm.\]
