उत्तर

After drawing the opposite sides of AB, we get

Since from the figure, we get CD//FE, therefore, FC must parallel to DE. Therefore it is proved that the quadrilateral CDEF is a parallelogram.

The area of the parallelogram on the same base and between the same parallel lines is always equal and the area of the parallelogram is equal to the area of a rectangle on the same base and of the same altitude i.e, between the same parallel lines. 

So Area of CDEF= Area of ABDC + Area of ABEF 
Hence Proved
