Correct Answer: 8 cm2


Solution :
Given: Let A, B, and C be the mid-points of sides PQ, QR, and PR, respectively of $\triangle$PQR, the area of $\triangle$PQR is 32 cm2.
We know,
Area of $\triangle$ABC = $\frac{1}{4}$ × (Area of $\triangle$PQR)
So, the area of $\triangle$ ABC
= $\frac{1}{4}$ × 32
= 8 cm2
Hence, the correct answer is 8 cm2.
