    Sides of two similar triangles are in the ratio \[\text{4}:\text{9}\]. Areas of these triangles are in the ratio:

    A) \[2:3\]

    B) \[4:9\]

    C) \[81:16\]

    D) \[16:81\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     [d] We have two similar triangles such that the ratio of their corresponding sides is \[4:9\].
    The ratio of areas of two similar triangles is equal to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.
                \[\frac{ar({{\Delta }_{1}})}{ar({{\Delta }_{2}})}={{\left( \frac{4}{9} \right)}^{2}}=\frac{16}{81}\]
    \[ar({{\Delta }_{1}}):ar({{\Delta }_{2}})=16:81\]
