Area of ΔBCE = 1/2 x base x height = 1/2 x 16 x 8 = 64cm².
Area of ΔABE = 1/2 x base x height = 1/2 x 4 x 8 = 16cm²
Area of ΔCDE = 1/2 x base x height = 1/2 x (16-4) x 8 = 48cm²
Sum of area of ΔABE and ΔCDE = 16cm² + 48cm² = 64cm².
Therefore, yes the area of ΔBEC equal to the sum of the area of DBAE and DCDE.

area of triangle bce = 1/2× base × height
that is 1/2×16×8 = 64 square cm
and yes area of triangle BCE is equal to the sum of the area of another two given triangles.
Area of BAE + AREA OF CDE
=1/2×4×8 + 1/2×12×8
=16 + 48
=64 Proved
