Answer:
Ratio of triangle AMN to square ABCD = 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
area AMN = Area ABN - Area MNB
Where AB = BC = x
Area AMN = [ ½ *( x * ½x )] - [ ½( ½x * ½x)] = x²/8
Area of ABCD = x* x = x²
So therefore:
The ratio of area of triangle AMN to area of square ABCD would be
= (x²/8) / x²
=1/8
