उत्तर
Given: In the following figure, CD || AE and CY || BA
To prove: ar (ΔCBX) = ar (ΔAXY) .
Proof: We know that, triangles on the same base and between the same parallels are equal in areas.
Here, ΔABY and ΔABC both lie on the same base AB and between the same parallels CY and BA.
ar (ΔABY) = ar (ΔABC)
⇒ ar (ABX) + ar (AXY) = ar (ABX) + ar (CBX)
⇒ ar (AXY) = ar (CBX) ...[Eliminating ar (ABX) from both sides]

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.]
