In Fig. ABCD is a trapezium in which AB||DC. Prove that ar(Δ AOD) = ar(Δ BOC).

Answer»

Given that, 

ABCD is a trapezium with AB ‖ DC 

To prove : 

Area (ΔAOD) = Area (ΔBOC)

Proof : 

Since, 

ΔABC and ΔABD are on the same base AB and between the same parallels AB and DC

Therefore, 

Area (Δ ABC) = Area (Δ ABD) 

Area (Δ ABC) – Area (Δ AOB) 

= Area (ΔABD) – Area (Δ AOB) 

Area (Δ AOD) = Area (Δ BOC) 

Hence, proved
