nafishasan Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 (edited) ABC and PQR are both triangles. Is the area of triangle ABC greater than the area of triangle PQR? 1.Sides AB=PQ, BC=QR, and AC= pr 2. Angles A=P, B=Q, and C=R A. Together the statements are sufficient, but alone neither statement is sufficient B. Together the statements are not sufficient C. Both statements are sufficient alone D. Statement 1 alone is sufficient, but statement 2 alone is not sufficient E. Statement 2 alone is sufficient, but statement 1 alone is not sufficient Edited February 10, 2012 by nafishasan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have posted the question correctly but there is some problem in the forum what is why it is showing Princeton Review instead of P R.

sandeep_chads Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Lolz, this is a funny one ;) The answer should be (A) Using 1 If the 3 sides of a triangle are equal, then by SSS (side,side,side) the 2 triangles are congruent we do not need to know much about the angles Using 2 If the 3 angles have the same angle, then by AAA (angle, angle, angle) the 2 triangles are similar, but the area may be different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
