NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 9 Areas of Parallelograms and Triangles Ex 9.3

Ex 9.3 Class 9 Maths Question 1.
In the given figure, E is any point on median AD  of a Δ ABC. Show that
ar (Δ ABE) = ar(Δ ACE).
Solution.
NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 9 Areas of Parallelograms and Triangles Ex 9.3.1
Given: AD is a median of Δ ABC and E is any point on AD.
To prove: ar (Δ ABE) – ar (Δ ACE)
Proof: Since AD is the median of Δ ABC.
∴ ar(Δ ABD) = ar (Δ ACD)    …(i)
[since a median of a triangle divides it into two triangles of equal areas]
Also, ED is the median of AF.RC
∴ ar (ABED) = ar (ACED)      … (ii)
[since a median of a triangle divides it into two triangles of equal areas] On subtracting eq. (ii) from eq. (i), we get
ar(Δ ABD) – ar (Δ BED) = ar (Δ ACD) – ar (ΔCED)
⇒  ar (Δ ABE) = ar (Δ ACE)
Hence proved

Ex 9.3 Class 9 Maths Question 2.
In a AABC, E is the mid-point of median AD. Show that
ar(ΔBED) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 4 } \) ar (Δ ABC).
Solution.
NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 9 Areas of Parallelograms and Triangles Ex 9.3.2
Given: ABC is a triangle and E is the mid-point of the median AD.
To prove :     ar (Δ BED) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 4 } \) ar (Δ ABC)
Proof : We know that the median divides a triangle into two triangles of equal areas.
∴ ar (Δ ABD) = ar(Δ  ADC)
⇒  ar (Δ ABD) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \) ar (Δ ABC)  …(i)
In Δ ABD, BE is the median.
ar (ΔBED) = ar (ΔBAE)
⇒  ar(ΔBED) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \)ar (ΔABD)
⇒ ar(ΔBED) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \).\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \) ar (ΔABC)
[from eq. (i)]
⇒ ar(ΔBED) =\(\frac { 1 }{ 4 } \) ar (ΔABC)
Hence proved.

Ex 9.3 Class 9 Maths Question 3.
Show that the diagonals of a parallelogram divide it into four triangles of equal area.
Solution.
NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 9 Areas of Parallelograms and Triangles Ex 9.3.3
Given: ABCD is a parallelogram and its diagonals AC and BD intersect each other at O.
To prove: Diagonals AC and BD divide parallelogram ABCD into four triangles of equal areas.
i.e., ar (Δ OAB) = ar (Δ OBC) = ar (Δ OCD) = ar (Δ OAD)
Proof: We know that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, so we have
OA = OC and OB = OD.
Also, we know that a median of a triangle divides it into two triangles of equal areas.
Now, as in Δ ABC, BO is the median.
∴ ar (Δ OAB) = ar (Δ OBC)  … (i)
In Δ ABD, AO is the median.
∴  ar (Δ OAB) = ar (Δ OAD) … (ii)
Similarly, in Δ ACD, DO is the median.
ar (Δ AOD) = ar (Δ OCD)     …(iii)
From eqs. (i), (ii) and (iii), we get
ar (Δ OAB) = ar (Δ OBC) = ar (ΔOCD) = ar (Δ OAD) lienee proved.

Ex 9.3 Class 9 Maths Question 4.
In the given figure, ABC and ABD are two triangles on the same base AB. If the line-segment CD is bisected by AB at O, show that ar(Δ ABC )= ar( Δ ABD)
Solution.

NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 9 Areas of Parallelograms and Triangles Ex 9.3.4
Given: ABC and ABD are two triangles on the same base AB.
To prove : ar (ΔABC) = ar (Δ ABD)
Proof: Since the line segment CD is bisected by AB at O.
∴ OC = OD
In Δ ACD, we have OC = OD
So, AO is the median of ΔACD.
Also, we know that the median divides a triangle into two triangles of equal areas.
∴ ar (Δ AOC) = ar (ΔAOD)  … (i)
Similarly, in ABCD,
ar (ABOC) = ar (ABOD)    … (ii)
[Since, BO is the median of ABCD]
On adding eqs. (i) and (ii), we get ar (Δ AOC) + ar (Δ BOC) = ar (Δ AOD) + ar (Δ BOD)
⇒  ar (Δ ABC) = ar (Δ ABD)
Hence proved.

Ex 9.3 Class 9 Maths Question 5.
D, E and F are respectively the mid-points of the sides BC, CA and AB of a ΔABC.Show that
(i) BDEF is a parallelogram.
(ii) ar (ΔDEF) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \) ar (ΔABC).
(iii) ar (||gm BDEF) = ar (AABC).
Solution.
NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 9 Areas of Parallelograms and Triangles Ex 9.3.5
Given: ABC is a triangle in which the mid-points of sides BC, CA and AB
(i) are respectively D, E, and F.
To prove :
BDEF is a parallelogram.
(ii) ar (ΔDEF) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 4 } \) ar (AABC)
(iii) ar (||gm BDEF) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \) ar (AABC)
(i) Proof:
Since, E and F are the mid-points of AC and AB.
BC || FE and FE = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \) BC =BD [by mid-point theorem]
=> BD || FE and BD = FE
Similarly, BF || DE and BF = DE
Hence, BDEF is a parallelogram.
[∵ a pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel]

(ii) Similarly, we can prove that both FDCE and AFDE are also parallelograms.
Now, BDEF is a parallelogram, so its diagonal FD divides it’s into two triangles of equal areas.

Ex 9.3 Class 9 Maths Question 7.
D and E are points on sides AB and AC respectively of Δ ABC such that ar (Δ DBO = ar (Δ EBC). Prove that DE || BC.
Solution.
NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 9 Areas of Parallelograms and Triangles Ex 9.3.11
Given: A Δ ABC and D and E are points on sides AB and AC respectively, such that
ar (Δ DBC) = ar (Δ EBC).
To prove:   DE || BC
Proof: Here, ADBC and AEBC are equal in area and have same base BC.
∴ Altitude from D of Δ DBC Altitude from E of Δ EBC
Hence, Δ DBC and Δ AEBC are between the same parallels.
i.e., DE || BC

Ex 9.3 Class 9 Maths Question 8.
XY is a line parallel to side BC of an AABC. If BE || AC and CF || AB meet XY at E and F respectively, show that ar (Δ ABE) = ar (Δ ACF).
Solution.
NCERT Solutions for Class 9 Maths Chapter 9 Areas of Parallelograms and Triangles Ex 9.3.12
Given A Δ ABC in which XY || BC, BE || AC,
i.e. BE || CY and CF || AB, i.e., CF || XB.
To prove :  ar (Δ ABE) = ar (Δ ACF)
Proof: Since, XY || BC and CY || BE. So, EYCB is a parallelogram.
Now, as Δ ABF and parallelogram EYCB lie on the same base BE and CA.
ar (AABE) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \) ar (||gm  BCYE)     …(i)
Again, CF || BX and ZF || BC So, BCFX is a parallelogram.
Now, as Δ ACF and parallelogram BCFX lie on the same base CF and between the same parallel lines AB and FC.
ar (Δ ACF) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \) ar (||gm BCFX)    …(ii)
Also, parallelograms BCFX and BCYE lie. on the same base BC and between the same parallels BC and EF.
ar (||gm BCFX) = ar (||gm BCYE) …(iii)
From eqs. (i), (ii) and (iii), we get
ar (Δ ABE) = ar (Δ ACF)

Ex 9.3 Class 9 Maths Question 9.
