उत्तर

(1) We know that each median of a Δle divides it into two triangles of equal area
Since, OR is a median of ΔCAP
∴ ar (ΔCRA) = `1/2` ar (ΔCAP) ....... (1)
Also, CPis a median of ΔCAB
∴ ar ( ΔCAP) ar (ΔCPB) ....... (2)
From (1) and (2) we get
∴ area (Δ ARC ) = `1/2 ar (CPB)` ....... (3)
PQ is the median of ΔPBC
∴ area( Δ CPB) = 2area (Δ PBQ) ......... (4)
From (3) and (4) we get
∴ area (Δ ARC) = area (PBQ) ....... (5)
(2) Since QP and QR medians of s QAB and QAP respectively.
∴ ar (ΔQAP) = area (ΔPBQ) ............ (6)
And area (ΔQAP) = 2ar (QRP) ......... (7)
From (6) and (7) we have
Area (ΔPRQ) = `1/2` ar (ΔPBQ) ......... (8)
From (5) and (8) we get
Area (ΔPRQ) = `1/2` area (ΔARC)
(3) Since, ∠R is a median of ΔCAP
∴ area (ΔARC) = `1/2` ar (ΔCAP)
`= 1/2 xx1/2[ ar (ABC)]`
= `1/4` area (ABC)
Since RQ is a median of ΔRBC
∴ ar (ΔRQC) =`1/2` ar (Δ RBC)
= `1/2`[ ar (ΔABC)- ar (ARC) ]
= `1/2`[ar (ΔABC) - `1/4`(Δ ABC )]
= `3/8`(Δ ABC)
