Answer :
Let the smaller triangle be ABC and larger triangle be
DEF.
We know that the ratio of the areas of two similar triangles is equal to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.
i.e. ar(ABC)/ar(
DEF) = (AB/DE)2
Substituting the given values, we get
⇒ 48cm2/ ar(DEF) = (2/3)2
⇒ 48cm2/ ar(DEF) = 4/9
⇒ ar(DEF)= (48 × 9)/4 cm2
⇒ ar(DEF) = 108cm2
108cm2
