Answer :

(d) 14.365Given, ST || RQ∴ \(rac{ ext{Area of ΔSPT}}{ ext{Area of ΔRPQ}}\) = \(rac{ST^2}{RQ^2}\)Also, given ST = \(\bigg(1-rac{35}{100}\bigg)RQ\) = (0.65) RQ∴ \(rac{ST}{RQ}\) = 0.65 ⇒ \(\bigg(rac{ST}{RQ}\bigg)^2\) = 0.4225⇒ \(rac{ ext{Area of ΔSPT}}{ ext{Area of ΔRPQ}}\) = 0.4225 ⇒ \(rac{ ext{Area of ΔSPT}}{{34}}\) = 0.4225⇒ Area of ΔSPT = 0.4225 x 34 = 14.365
