AMC10 2012 B · Q19. It mainly tests Similarity, Area & perimeter.

In rectangle ABCD, AB = 6, AD = 30, and G is the midpoint of AD. Segment AB is extended 2 units beyond B to point E, and F is the intersection of ED and BC. What is the area of BFDG ?
在矩形ABCD中,AB = 6,AD = 30,G为AD中点。将线段AB向B外延长2单位至点E,F为ED与BC交点。BFDG的面积是多少?
(A) 133/2 133/2
(B) 67 67
(C) 135/2 135/2
(D) 68 68
(E) 137/2 137/2
Answer
Correct choice: (C)
正确答案:(C)
Solution
Answer (C): Because $\triangle EBF$ is similar to $\triangle EAD$, it follows that $\dfrac{BF}{AD}=\dfrac{BE}{AE}$, or $\dfrac{BF}{30}=\dfrac{2}{8}$, giving $BF=\dfrac{15}{2}$. The area of trapezoid $BFDG$ is $\dfrac{1}{2}h(b_1+b_2)=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot AB\cdot(BF+GD)=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 6\cdot\left(\dfrac{15}{2}+15\right)=\dfrac{135}{2}$.
答案(C):因为$\triangle EBF$与$\triangle EAD$相似,所以有$\dfrac{BF}{AD}=\dfrac{BE}{AE}$,即$\dfrac{BF}{30}=\dfrac{2}{8}$,从而$BF=\dfrac{15}{2}$。梯形$BFDG$的面积为$\dfrac{1}{2}h(b_1+b_2)=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot AB\cdot(BF+GD)=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 6\cdot\left(\dfrac{15}{2}+15\right)=\dfrac{135}{2}$。
