उत्तर
Draw DN ⊥ AB and PM ⊥ AB.
Now,
`Area (ΙΙ^(gm) ABCD) = AB xx DN , ar (ΔAPB ) = 1/2 (AB xx PM)`
Now , PM < DN
⇒ `AB xx PM < AB xx DN`
⇒ ` 1/2 (AB xx PM) < 1/2 (AB xx DN)`
⇒ `Area ( ΔAPB ) <1/2 ar ( Parragram ABCD)`

The King was very happy with carpenters Cheggu and Anar. They had made a very big and beautiful bed for him. So as gifts the king wanted to give some land to Cheggu, and some gold to Anar. Cheggu was happy. He took 100 meters of wire and tried to make different rectangles.
He made a 10 m × 40 m rectangle. Its area was 400 square meters. So he next made a 30 m × 20 m rectangle.
