[ Δ O P R ] = 5 4 2 = 10 [\Delta OPR] = \frac{5 \cdot 4}{2} = 10

[ Δ O P Q ] : [ Δ O Q R ] : : 3 : 2 [\Delta OPQ] : [\Delta OQR] :: 3 : 2

[ Δ O Q R ] = 2 5 10 4 \therefore [\Delta OQR] = \frac{2}{5} \cdot 10 \implies \boxed{4}

The x x -coordinate of the point Q Q is 2 × 5 + 3 × 0 2 + 3 = 2 \dfrac{2\times 5+3\times0}{2+3}=2 , which is the height of the O Q R \triangle OQR . Therefore area of O Q R \triangle OQR is 1 2 × 2 × 4 = 4 \dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 4=\boxed{4}

Here,

O P R = 1 2 × 5 × 4 = 10 \triangle OPR=\frac {1}{2}×5×4=10

We know , if the hight of two triangles remains same, the area of them will be proportional to their base.

So, O Q R = 2 5 × 10 = 4 \triangle OQR=\frac{2}{5}×10=\boxed {4}
