उत्तर
Given, area of parallelogram, ABCD = 90 cm2.
i. We know that, parallelograms on the same base and between the same parallel are equal in areas.
Here, parallelograms ABCD and ABEF are on same base AB and between the same parallels AB and CF.
So, ar (ΔBEF) = ar (ABCD) = 90 cm2
ii. We know that, if a triangle and a parallelogram are on the same base and between the same parallels, then area of triangle is equal to half of the area of the parallelogram.
Here, ΔABD and parallelogram ABCD are on the same base AB and between the same parallels AB and CD.
So, ar (ΔABD) = `1/2` ar (ABCD)
= `1/2 xx 90` ...[∴ ar (ABCD) = 90 cm2]
= 45 cm2
iii. Here, ABEF and parallelogram ABEF are on the same base EF and between the same parallels AB and EF.
ar (ΔBEF) = `1/2` ar (ABEF)
= `1/2 xx 90` ...[∴ ar (ABEF) = 90 cm2, from part (i)]
= 45 cm2

[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.]
