hlo mate
here is your answer
In tri.ABC
ABD=ACD-------------(1)
In tri. abd,BE is the median
Abe=bed-------------(2)
now,
ABD=BED
=2(BED)-----------(3)
ABC=ABD+ACD
ABC=2(ABD)-----using(1)
ABC=2*2(BED)----using(3)
ABC=4(BED)
so, (BED)=1/4(ABC)

Given:
E is the median of AD.
To find:
Solution:
Ad is the median of ∆ABC , it will divide ∆ABC into two Triangles of equal area.
∴ ar(∆ABD) =ar(∆ABC)
In ΔABC,
ar(ABD)=ar(ACD) ___________ (1)
In ΔABD, BE is the median
ar(ABE)=ar(BED) __________ (2)
Now, ar(ABD)=ar(BED)
= 2. ar (BED) ______ (3)
ar(ABC)=ar(ABD)+ar(ACD)
ar(ABD)=2.ar(ABD) using (1)
ar(ABC)=2.2.ar(BED) - (2)
ar(ABC)= 4.ar (BED)
∴ar(BED)= 1/4ar(ABC)
Hence it is proved.
