Hi! Here is the answer to your question

A (4, 6), B (1, 5) and C (7, 2) are the vertices of the ΔABC D and E are points on AB and AC such that

THE VERTICES OF TRIANGLE ABC ARE A(4,6) , B(1,5) , C(7,2). A LINE IS DRAWN TO INTERSECT SIDES AB AND AC AT D AND E RESPECTIVELY SUCH THAT AD/AB=AE/AC=1/4. CALCULATE THE AREA OF TRIANGLE ADE AND COMPARE IT WITH AREA OF TRANGLE ABC.
