Step-by-step explanation:
The ABCD is a parallelogram with AC and BD are diagonal
Diagonal of parallelogram bisect each other at point O
So O is the mid point of BD then BO=OD_____.(1)
And O is the mid point of AC then AO=OC____.(2)
In ΔABC
OA=OC From (2)
So BO is the median of ΔABC
Then area(ΔAOB)=area(ΔBOC)______&(3)
In ΔADC
OA=OC From (2)
So DO is the median of ΔABC
Then area(ΔAOD)=area(ΔCOD)______(4)
In ΔABD
OB=OD From (1)
So AO is the median of ΔABD
Then area(ΔAOB)=area(ΔAOD)_______.(5)
Then from (3) ,(4) and (5) we get
area(ΔAOB)=area(ΔBOC)=ΔCOD=ΔAOD
Then diagonal of parallelogram divide in four equal parts
