Formulas and Key Relations

1. Ratio of Areas of Two Triangles

Area = 1/2 × Base × Height

A(ΔABC)/A(ΔPQR) = (BC × AD)/(QR × PS)

A(ΔABC)/A(ΔPQR) = b1/b2

A(ΔABC)/A(ΔAPB) = h1/h2

2. Basic Proportionality Theorem and Converse

AP/PB = AQ/QC

AP/BP = QC/BQ

3. Property of an Angle Bisector

AE/EB = CA/CB

AB/BC = AD/DC

AB/AC = BD/DC

4. Three Parallel Lines and Two Transversals

AB/BC = PQ/QR

AB/BC = XY/YZ

Area of a triangle = 1/2 × base × height

CB = CD is obtained from congruent angles in ΔCBD
