If a parallelogram with area p, a triangle with area R and a triangle with area T are all constructed on the same base and all have the same altitude, then

A P=R

B P=A

C P=3A

D P=2R

Solution

Correct Answer: Option A

let each have base = b and height = h
then p = b \(\times\) h, R = b \(\times\) h and T = (1/2) \(\times\) b \(\times\) h
so P = R, P = 2T and T = (1/2)\(\times\) R are all correct statements
