Explanation / Answer

Given that the pair of traingles with sides 12 ft and 10 ft are similar.
As the triangles are similar,
Area of Traingles is proportional to the squares of their respective sides.
Therefore, Area of Smaller Triangle/135 = 10^2/12^2
Area of Smaller Triangle = (100*135)/144 = 93.75
The nearest whole number would be 94.
