1. Problem Description

The problem states that the area of triangle OFC is 33 cm233 \text{ cm}^2. We need to find the area of triangle OBG. From the figure, we can see that the segments AH, HB, BC, CD, DE, EF, and FG are equal in length.

2. Solution Steps

Let the length of each segment AH, HB, BC, CD, DE, EF, and FG be xx.
Thus, AH = HB = BC = CD = DE = EF = FG = xx.
The height of triangle OFC is 3x3x.
The height of triangle OBG is 6x6x.
Since triangles OFC and OBG share the same vertex O and the base of both triangles lies on the line AG, the ratio of their areas is equal to the ratio of their heights.
Let the area of triangle OFC be AOFCA_{OFC} and the area of triangle OBG be AOBGA_{OBG}. We are given that AOFC=33A_{OFC} = 33.
We have
AOBGAOFC=6x3x=2\frac{A_{OBG}}{A_{OFC}} = \frac{6x}{3x} = 2.
Therefore,
AOBG=2×AOFC=2×33=66A_{OBG} = 2 \times A_{OFC} = 2 \times 33 = 66.
The area of triangle OBG is 66 cm266 \text{ cm}^2.

3. Final Answer

66 cm2^2
