Answer 10

Waheguru - it's false. The problem does not tell you what kind of triangle it is, therefore you cannot know that it bisects the triangle. False.

Answer 11

Yes, it is 1/4 the area of the big triangle because the base of the small triangle is 1/2 the base of the big triangle and the height of the small triangle is 1/2 the height of the big triangle.
A = (1/2b)(1/2h)=1/4bh
