Answer:

40cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC ≅ ΔDEF

The length AB = 28 and the length of DE = 7. Since these are corresponding sides, we know that DEF= 1/4 (ΔABC)

So, since ΔABC = 160, we know that ΔDEF will be 1/4 of that, meaning that ΔDEF is 40.

ΔDEF = 40cm²

Answer:

10 cm2

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio per side is 28/7 = 4

When two similar figures have a ratio of 4:1, the difference between their areas is:

[tex](4)^{2} :(1)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]16:1[/tex]

That is, the dimension of the area of the largest figure is 16 times larger than the smallest figure.

So for this case:

the area of the larger figure is

ΔABC = 160 sq.cm

Then the area of the minor figure is:

ΔDEF= 160/16 = 10 sq.cm

Hope this helps
