If E is any point on median AD of
△
ABC prove that
A
(
△
A
B

E
)
.

Solution
A
B
C
is a triangle with
A
D
as median
i.e,
B
D
=
C
D
E
is any point on
A
D
Join
E
B
and
E
C
In
Δ
A
B
C
D
is the midpoint of
B
C
therefore
A
D
is median
since median divides a triangle a triangle into two triangle of equal area
∴
a
r
(
Δ
A
B
D
)
=
a
r
(
Δ
A
C
D
)
⟶
(
1
)
similarly, In
Δ
E
B
C
D
is the midpoint of
B
C
therefore
E
D
is the median
hence,
a
r
(
Δ
E
B
D
)
=
a
r
(
Δ
E
C
D
)
⟶
(

)
subtracting (1) and (2)
a
r
(
Δ
A
B
D
)
−
a
r
(
Δ
E
B
D
)
=
a
r
(
Δ
A
C
D
)
−
a
r
(
Δ
E
C
D
)
⇒
a
r
(
Δ
A
B
E
)
=
a
r
(
Δ
A
C
E
)
