Answer:
ABCD is trapezium in which AB∥DC.
EF is parallel to side DC.
Then we have AB∥DC∥EF.
Hence we have also trapezium ABFE and trapezium EFCD.
Let AP be the perpendicular to DC and this intersects EF at Q.
AQ will be perpendicular to EF.
For △APD and △AQE we have
EA
AD
=
AQ
AP
=2
This gives AP=2AQ
i.e, AQ=QP
Consider the area we have area ABCD= area ABFE+ area EFCD
(
