YES

  • Area of Triangle 1

Base=b

Height= h

Area 1=A1=1/2*b*h

  • Area of Triangle 2

Base=b

Height= 4h

Area of triangle 2=A2=1/2*b*4h

  • Comparing A1 and A2

A2/A1= (1/2*b*4h)/(1/2*b*h)

= (1/2*b*4h)/(1/2*b*h)

=4/1

Ratio of heights =h2/h1= 4/1

Ratio of areas =A2/A1= 4/1

They are proportional.
