Question -
Answer -
(i) It can be observedthat parallelogram PQRS and ABRS lie on the same base SR
and also, these lie inbetween the same parallel lines SR and PB.
тИ┤Area (PQRS) = Area (ABRS) тАж (1)
(ii) Consider ╬ФAXS andparallelogram ABRS.
As these lie on the samebase and are between the same parallel lines AS and BR,
тИ┤ Area (╬ФAXS) =┬а
Area (ABRS) тАж (2)From equations (1) and(2), we obtain
Area(╬ФAXS) =┬аArea (PQRS)
