AD is the median of ΔABC. Therefore, it will divide ΔABC into two triangles of equal areas.

∴ Area (ΔABD) = Area (ΔACD) ...

(1) ED is the median of ΔEBC.

∴ Area (ΔEBD) = Area (ΔECD) ... (2)

On subtracting equation (2) from equation (1), we obtain

Area (ΔABD) − Area (EBD) = Area (ΔACD) − Area

(ΔECD) Area (ΔABE) = Area (ΔACE)
