- 1The cumulative area of the square increases linearly, while the cumulative area of the triangle increases slowly up to point D and then its rate of increase decreases.✓
- 2The cumulative area of both the square and the triangle increases linearly at a constant rate from A to B.
- 3The cumulative area of the square increases quadratically, while the cumulative area of the triangle remains constant.
- 4The cumulative area of the square increases linearly, while the cumulative area of the triangle decreases linearly from A to B.
Correct answer
The cumulative area of the square increases linearly, while the cumulative area of the triangle increases slowly up to point D and then its rate of increase decreases.
