that:
(1) ar (ΔLCM ) = ar (ΔLBM )
(2) ar (ΔLBC) = ar (ΔMBC)
(3) ar (ΔABM) ar (ΔACL)
(4) ar (ΔLOB) ar (ΔMOC)

उत्तर
(1) Clearly Triangles LMB and LMC are on the same base LM and between the same
parallels LM and BC.
∴ ar (ΔLMB) = ar (ΔLMC) ......(1)
(2) We observe that triangles LBC and MBC area on the same base BC and between the
same parallels LM and BC
∴ arc ΔLBC = ar (MBC) ..........(2)
(3) We have
ar (ΔLMB) = ar (ΔLMC) [from (1)]
⇒ ar ( ΔALM) + ar (ΔLMB) = ar (ΔALM) + ar (LMC)
⇒ ar (ΔABM) = ar (ΔACL)
(4) We have
ar(ΔCBC) = ar (ΔMBC) ∴ [from (1)]
⇒ ar (ΔLBC) = ar (ΔBOC) = a (ΔMBC) - ar (BOC)
⇒ ar (ΔLOB) = ar (ΔMOC)

Can you answer the question that you have left in the ’Introduction’ of this chapter, whether the field of Budhia has been actually divided into three parts of equal area?

[Remark: Note that by taking BD = DE = EC, the triangle ABC is divided into three triangles ABD, ADE and AEC of equal areas. In the same way, by dividing BC into n equal parts and joining the points of division so obtained to the opposite vertex of BC, you can divide ΔABC into n triangles of equal areas.]
