In the given figure, ABCDE is a pentagon. A line through B parallel to AC meets DC produced at F. Show that
(i) ar (ACB) = ar (ACF)
(ii) ar (AEDF) = ar (ABCDE)
उत्तर
(i) ΔACB and ΔACF lie on the same base AC and are between
The same parallels AC and BF.
∴ Area (ΔACB) = Area (ΔACF)
(ii) It can be observed that
Area (ΔACB) = Area (ΔACF)
⇒ Area (ΔACB) + Area (ACDE) = Area (ACF) + Area (ACDE)
⇒ Area (ABCDE) = Area (AEDF)

Can you answer the question that you have left in the ’Introduction’ of this chapter, whether the field of Budhia has been actually divided into three parts of equal area?
[Remark: Note that by taking BD = DE = EC, the triangle ABC is divided into three triangles ABD, ADE and AEC of equal areas. In the same way, by dividing BC into n equal parts and joining the points of division so obtained to the opposite vertex of BC, you can divide ΔABC into n triangles of equal areas.]
