what ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its 4:1 because the formula for area of triangle is bh/2 and since 6*4 is 24 and divide by 2 is 12 and the other triangle is 3*2= 6 divide by 2 is 3 then the area ratios are 4:1

Okay thank you ! I have another one if you can help me out

All of the triangles in the figure below are congruent. What is the area of the figure? Note that all measurements are in centimeters. Note that the apothem shown is equal to 2 square root 3
24cm2
36 + 24cm2
36 cm2
24 + 36cm2
