In the given figure, PQRS and ABRS are parallelograms and X is any point on side BR. Show that
(i) ar (PQRS) = ar (ABRS)
(ii) ar (AXS) = 1/2ar (PQRS)
उत्तर
(i) It can be observed that parallelogram PQRS and ABRS lie on the same base SR
and also, these lie in between the same parallel lines SR and PB.
∴ Area (PQRS) = Area (ABRS) ... (1)
(ii) Consider ΔAXS and parallelogram ABRS.
As these lie on the same base and are between the same parallel lines AS and BR,
∴ Area (ΔAXS) = 1/2Area (ABRS) ... (2)
From equations (1) and (2), we obtain
Area (ΔAXS) = 1/2Area (PQRS)
