उत्तर
Let ΔAPB and parallelogram ABCD lie on base AB and between parallels AB and PC.
To show area ΔAPB = `1/2` Area (ABCD)
Now, draw BQ || AP.
Then ABQP is a parallelogram.
Now area ABQP = Area ABCD .....(They are on same base AB and between same parallels AB and PC)
⇒ ΔPAB ≅ ΔBQP
Area PAB = Area BQP
= `1/2` Area ABQP
= `1/2` Area ABCD
