Answer»

Given.ABCD is a parallelogram.A point E is taken on the side BC.AE and DC are produced to meet at M.Prove that ar(∆ADM)=ar(∆ADM).....(1)

As DC||AB,soCM||AB

Since triangles on the same base and between the same parallels are equal in area,so we have ar(∆ACM)=ar(∆BCM).....(2)Adding(1) and (2),we getar(∆ADC)+ar(∆ACM)=ar(∆ABC)+ar(∆BCM)=ar(∆ADM)=ar(ABMC). Hence proved.
