उत्तर
It is given that ABCD is a parallelogram. We know that opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal.
∴ AD = BC ... (1)
Similarly, for parallelograms DCEF and ABFE, it can be proved that
DE = CF ... (2)
And, EA = FB ... (3)
In ΔADE and ΔBCF,
AD = BC ................[Using equation (1)]
DE = CF ................[Using equation (2)]
EA = FB ................[Using equation (3)]
∴ ΔADE ≅ BCF (SSS congruence rule)
⇒ Area (ΔADE) = Area (ΔBCF)
