If a parallelogram with area P, a rectangle with area R and a triangle with area T are all constructed on the same base and all have the same altitude, then which of the following statements is false ?

A. P = R

B. P + T = 2R

C. P = 2T

D. T = $$\frac{1}{2}$$R

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Let each have base = b and height = h
Then,
P = b × h, R = b × h, T = $$\frac{1}{2}$$ × b × h
So, P = R, P = 2T and T = $$\frac{1}{2}$$R, are all correct statements.
∴ Option B is false
