Ratio of Areas of Triangles with Same Altitude

Ratio of Areas of Triangles with Same Altitude

## Formula

For two triangles having the same altitude:

$$\frac{\Delta_1}{\Delta_2}=\frac{b_1}{b_2}$$

## Terminologies

- $$\Delta_1,\Delta_2$$ → Areas of the two triangles.

- $$b_1,b_2$$ → Corresponding bases.

## Usage

- Used to compare areas of triangles when their bases lie on the same line or parallel lines.
