Two similar triangular plots of land have corresponding sides 30 $m$ and 45 $m$ . The smaller plot has area $600 m^{2}$ .
Find the area of the larger plot (in $m^{2}$ ).

Question

Two similar triangular plots of land have corresponding sides 30 m and 45 m. The smaller plot has area 600 m^2. Find the area of the larger plot (in m^2).

Accepted Answer

1350. Side ratio = 45/30 = 3/2; area ratio = (3/2)^2 = 9/4. Larger area = 600 * 9/4 = 1350 m^2.

Two similar triangular plots of land have corresponding sides 30 $m$ and 45 $m$ . The smaller plot has area $600 m^{2}$ .
Find the area of the larger plot (in $m^{2}$ ).
