In a triangle ABC, E is the mid-point of median AD. Show that ar(BED) = ¼ ar(ABC).
Answers
Solution :
Given:
In AABC, AD is the median and E is the mid point of AD
A median divides the a triangle into two triangles with equal area
Area AABD = Area AADC
Now
+ (1)
Area AABC = Area AABD + Area AADC
Area AABC = 2(Area AABD)
[: From (1)]
> Area AABD = 1 X Area AABC (2)
BE is the median of AABD So.
Area AABE Area ABED +(3)
Area AND = Area AABE + Area ABED
Area AABD = 2(Area ABED)
1 2 x Area AABC = 2(Area ABED)
1 4 x Area AABC = Area ABED
. Area ABED = 1 4 X Area ΔABC
Hence proved
Answer:
Given ABC is a triangle in which E is the mid-point of the median.
Since median of a triangle divides a triangle into two equal triangles of equal area.
So area of Δ ABD = 1/2 * area of Δ ABC
Again BE is the median of the triangle ABD
So area of Δ BDE =1/2* area of Δ ABD
= 1/2*1/2* area
of Δ ABC
= 1/4 * area of Δ ABC
So area of Δ BDE = 1/4 * area of Δ ABC
