Solution


In quadrilateral PQDA,
AP || DQ [In parallelogram ABCD, AB || CD]
PQ || AD [in parallelogram AEFD, PE || AD]
then, Quadrilateral PQDA is parallelogram.
Also, parallelogram PQDA and AEFD are on the same base AD and between the same parallels AD and EQ.
ar ( parallelogram PQDA) = ar (parallelogram AEFD)
On subtracting ar (quadrilateral APFD) from both sides, we get,
ar (parallelogram PQDA) - ar (quadrilateral APFD)
= ar (parallelogram AEFD) - ar (quadrilateral APFD)
ar(ΔQFD)=ar(ΔPEA)
