उत्तर

Given in the question, A point E is taken on the side BC of a parallelogram ABCD. AE and DC are produced to meet at F.

Prove that ar (ADF) = ar (ABFC)

Proof: ABCD is a parallelogram and AC divides it into two triangle of equal area.

ar (ΔADC) = ar (ΔABC)   ...(I)

So, DC || AB and CF || AB

As we know that triangle on the same base and between the same parallels are equal in area.

So, ar (ΔACF) = ar (ΔBCF)  ...(II)

Adding equation (I) and (II), we get

ar (ΔADC) + ar (ACF) = ar (ΔABC) + ar (ΔBCF)

ar (ΔADF) = ar (ABFC)

Hence proved.

In the given figure, ABC and ABD are two triangles on the same base AB. If line-segment CD is bisected by AB at O, show that ar (ABC) = ar (ABD).


A villager Itwaari has a plot of land of the shape of a quadrilateral. The Gram Panchayat of the village decided to take over some portion of his plot from one of the corners to construct a Health Centre. Itwaari agrees to the above proposal with the condition that he should be given equal amount of land in lieu of his land adjoining his plot so as to form a triangular plot. Explain how this proposal will be implemented.
