उत्तर

Steps of Construction:
(i) ABC is the required triangle.
(ii) Draw perpendicular bisector of BC which intersects BA in M, then any point on LM is equidistant from Band C.
(iii) Through A, draw a line m 11 BC.
(iv) The perpendicular bisector of BC and the parallel line m intersect each other at Q.
(v) Then triangle QBC is equal in area to triangle ABC. mis the locus of all points through which any triangle with base BC will be equal in area of triangle ABC.
