Given : ABCD is a parallelogram whose diagonals intersect at O and P is any point on BO.
To Prove : (i) ar(Δ ADO) = ar(Δ CDO)
(ii) ar(Δ ABP) = ar(Δ CBP)
Proof :
Since diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. Therefore, O is the midpoint of AC as well as BD.
AO = OC and BO = OD
(i) In ΔACD, DO is a median.
Therefore,
ar (ΔADO) = ar (ΔCDO)
Hence, proved
(ii) since O is the midpoint of AC. therefore , OP & OB are medians of ∆APC & ∆ABC.
In ∆APC, since OP is the median.Then,
ar (ΔAOP) = ar (ΔCOP) ……...(i)
In ∆ABC , since OB is a median.Then,
ar (ΔAOB) = ar (ΔCOB) ………...(ii)
On Subtracting eq(i) from (ii), we get :
ar (ΔAOB) - ar (ΔAOP) = ar (ΔCOB) - ar (ΔCOP)
ar (ΔABP) = ar (ΔCBP)
Hence, proved
