In this question a triangle ABC is given, and a point P divides the side AB in such a way that AP: PB = 1: 2. Q is another point on side AC such that PQ∥BC. You have to find the ratio of the area of triangle APQ and trapezium BPQC. This is a very important question of ncert maths book class 10, chapter name is similarity of triangles, can any one help me to find the answer of this question. That will be very helpful, thank you.
