the tricky point here is to observe what oa<ab does. to do this just draw a perpendicular from point a to ob. and name it c. you will realize that 2oc<ob .
now using statement 1: we have height as ac=12 and oc is 5 then ob >10 ('2oc'). now using triangle formula half*base (10+) *height(12) >60 hence sufficient.
statement 2 is clearly insufficient alone.


if liked my answer please give kudos.

In ∆OAB the point O is the origin, B is on X-axis, point A is in 1st quadrant and OA < AB. Is area of ∆OAB > 60?

1) Coordinates of Point A are (5, 12)
2) Coordinates of Point B are (12, 0)

Please check the video for the step-by-step solution.

Hey all, nice to meet everyone here - but what if point B is on the left side of the origin? I don't think anything prevents that in the question statement
