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 | |

= | × 10.8 | sq. cm | |||
6 |
= 1.8 sq.cm.
