    Answer: d
    Explanation: Let ABC and DEF
    are two similar triangles, such
    that,
    ΔABC ~ ΔDEF
    And AB/DE = AC/DF = BC/EF =
    4/9
    As the ratio of the areas of these
    triangles will be equal to the
    square of the ratio of the
    corresponding sides,
    ∴ Area(ΔABC)/Area(ΔDEF) =
    AB2/DE2
    ∴ Area(ΔABC)/Area(ΔDEF) =
    (4/9)2 = 16/81 = 16: 81
