उत्तर
It can be observed that ΔBQC and parallelogram ABCD lie on the same base BC and these are between the same parallel lines AD and BC.
∴Area (ΔBQC) = 1/2Area (ABCD) ... (1)
Similarly, ΔAPB and parallelogram ABCD lie on the same base AB and between the same parallel lines AB and DC.
∴ Area (ΔAPB) = 1/2Area (ABCD) ... (2)
From equation (1) and (2), we obtain
Area (ΔBQC) = Area (ΔAPB)
