In the previous segment, we found the relationship between the areas of a triangle and parallelogram on the same base and between the same parallels. In this segment, we will learn about areas of triangles on the same base and between parallel lines.
Triangles on same the base and between the same parallel lines
Consider two triangles ABC and PBC having the same base BC and between the same two parallel lines BC and AP.
