PQRS is a parallelogram,. A is any point on SR. PA is produced to meet QR produced at B . prove that area of triangle QAR =area of triangle SAB
Answers
Answer:
it has been proved below...
Step-by-step explanation:
GIVEN- PQRS is a parallelogram and PS=BR.
TO PROVE- ar(QAR)=ar(SAB)
CONSTRUCTION- Join PR
PROOF- Since, triangles PAR and QAR are on the same base AR and between same parallels AR and PQ.Therefore,
ar(PAR)=ar(QAR)
Now, PQRS is a parallelogram.
=> PS=QR
But, it is given that PS=BR.SO,
=> PS||BR and PS=BR.
Thus, in quadrilateral PSBR; one pair of opposites sides is equal and parallel.
Therefore, PSBR is a parallelogram
Now, in triangles PAR and SAB, we have
PA=AB (diagonals of a ||gm bisect each other)
angle PAR= angle SAB(vertically opposite angles)
AR=SA(diagonals of a ||gm bisect each other)
So, by SAS cong. rule, we have
triangle PAR congurent to triangle SAB
But, triangle PAR= triangle QAR (proved above)
So, triangle QAR is congurent to triangle SAB
Since, congurent triangles have equal area, therefore
=> ar(QAR)=ar(SAB)
Hence, proved
