Diagonals AC and BD of a quadrilateral ABCD intersect each other at P. Show that ar (APB) × ar (CPD) = ar (APD) × ar (BPC).
[Hint : From A and C, draw perpendiculars to BD.]

उत्तर
Let us draw AM ⊥ BD and CN ⊥ BD

`"Area of a triangle "=1/2xx"Base"xx"Altitude"`
`ar(APB)xxar(CPD)=[1/2xxBPxxAM]xx[1/2xxPDxxCN]`
`=1/4xxBPxxAMxxPDxxCN`
`ar(APD)xxar(BPC)=[1/2xxPDxxAM]xx[1/2xxCNxxBP]`
`=1/4xxPDxxAMxxCNxxBP`
`=1/4xxBPxxAMxxPDxxCN`
∴ ar (APB) × ar (CPD) = ar (APD) × ar (BPC)
