					 The area of a triangle ABC is 10.8 cm². If CP = PB and 2AQ = QB, then the area of the triangle APQ is
 
- 
                        
-  3.6 cm² 
 -  0.9 cm²
 -  2.7 cm² 
 - 1.8 cm²
 
 -  3.6 cm² 
 
Correct Option: D

AP is the median at BC.
∴ Area of ∆ABP = Area of ∆APC
Again, 2AQ = QB
| ∴ Area of ∆APQ = | Area of ∆ABP | |
| 3 | 
| ∴ Area of ∆APQ = | Area of ∆ABC | |
| 6 | 
| = | ![]()  | × 10.8 | ![]()  | sq. cm | |
| 6 | 
= 1.8 sq.cm.
