उत्तर
Consider ΔACD.
Line-segment CD is bisected by AB at O. Therefore, AO is the median of
ΔACD.
∴ Area (ΔACO) = Area (ΔADO) ... (1)
Considering ΔBCD, BO is the median.
∴ Area (ΔBCO) = Area (ΔBDO) ... (2)
Adding equations (1) and (2), we obtain
Area (ΔACO) + Area (ΔBCO) = Area (ΔADO) + Area (ΔBDO)
⇒ Area (ΔABC) = Area (ΔABD)
