उत्तर
Given: In the following figure, CD || AE and CY || BA
To prove: ar (ΔCBX) = ar (ΔAXY) .
Proof: We know that, triangles on the same base and between the same parallels are equal in areas.
Here, ΔABY and ΔABC both lie on the same base AB and between the same parallels CY and BA.
ar (ΔABY) = ar (ΔABC)
⇒ ar (ABX) + ar (AXY) = ar (ABX) + ar (CBX)
⇒ ar (AXY) = ar (CBX) ...[Eliminating ar (ABX) from both sides]

A villager Itwaari has a plot of land of the shape of a quadrilateral. The Gram Panchayat of the village decided to take over some portion of his plot from one of the corners to construct a Health Centre. Itwaari agrees to the above proposal with the condition that he should be given equal amount of land in lieu of his land adjoining his plot so as to form a triangular plot. Explain how this proposal will be implemented.
