उत्तर
Given, Area of ΔAFB = Area of parallelogram ABCD
⇒ `1/2` × AB × EF = CD × (Corresponding height) ...`[(∵ "area of triangle" = "base" xx "height and area of"),("parallelogram" = "base" xx "corresponding height")]`
⇒ `1/2` × AB × EF = CD × EG
Let the corresponding height be h.
Then, `1/2` × 10 × 6 = 10 × h ...[∵ altitude, EF = 16 cm and base, AB = 10 cm, given] [∵ AB = CD]
⇒ h = 8 cm
In ΔDAO, DO = 5 cm ...[∵ O is the mid-point of CD]
∴ Area of ΔDAO = `1/2` × OD × h
= `1/2 xx 5 xx 8`
= 20 cm2
