Detailed Solution

Given that, PQRS is a trapezium having PS and QR as parallel sides.
A is any point on PQ and B is a point on SR such that AB||QR .
The area of ΔPBQ is 17  cm 2 .
Question ImageWe have to find the area of ΔASR .
We know that, if a triangle and a parallelogram are on the same base and between the same parallels, the area of the triangle is equal to half the area of the parallelogram.
Area (ΔAPB)= Area (ΔABS)                           .........(1)
Area (ΔAQR)= Area (ΔABR)                          .........(2)
Area (ΔASR)= Area (ΔABS)+ Area (ΔABR) Substitute value of equation (1) and (2) in the above equation.  Area (ΔASR) = Area (ΔAPB)+ Area (ΔAQR) = Area (ΔBPQ) =17  cm 2
The area of ΔASR is 17c m 2 .
Hence option 1) is correct.
