give an example of two triangles that have equal areas but are not congruent.(mention all the elements of the two triangle)

Dear Student,

Please find below the solution to the asked query:

Example 1 :

ABC has base BC = 6 cm and height AD = 4 cm, other sides AB =12 cm, CA = 17 cm.

Area of ABC  = 12× 6 × 4 = 3 × 4 = 12 cm2
 And

PQR has base QR = 8 cm and height PM = 3 cm, other sides PQ = 9 cm, RP = 10 cm.

Area of PQR = 12× 8 × 3 = 4 × 3= 12 cm2

Here we can see that Area of ABC  = Area of PQR  , But both triangles are congruent to each other ( As both have different sides )


Hope this information will clear your doubts about topic.

Similarly you can find other pair of triangles that have same area but not congruent to each other . If you still have any more doubts just ask here on the forum and our experts will try to help you out as soon as possible.
