Non-digital : Paper, pencil, ruler, compass, protractor

Process (How to do the activity)

Download this geogebra file from this link.

Procedure :

Draw AB ∥ FC and AB is the base.
Draw Parallelograms ABCD and ABEF are on the same base AB and between same parallels AB and FC.
Identifying plane figures on the same base and between the same parallels
Identify Congruent triangles i.e. Δ BCE ≅ Δ ADF and find the area of triangles
Find the area of Trapezium ABED by using finding an area tool
What can you say about their areas?
Proving that parallelograms on the same base and between the same parallels have equal area by using following calculations

Area of the parallelogram ABCD

= Area of the Trapezium ABED + Area of the Triangle BCE

Area of the parallelogram ABEF

= Area of the Trapezium ABED + Area of the Triangle ADF

Evaluation at the end of the activity

If one rectangle and one parallelogram lying on the same base and between the same parallel lines then what will be area of the rectangle ?

-GIVEN :
+# Draw Parallelograms ABCD  and  ABEF are on the same base AB and between same parallels AB and FC.
+#Identifying plane figures on the same base and between the same parallels
-AB  ∥  FC  and  AB is the same base.

-on the same base AB and between
-same parallels AB and FC.
-PROOF :
-Δ BCE ≅ Δ ADF (By SAS Congruence Criterion)
-ar (BCE) = ar (ADF) =  =
-( Areas of Congruent figures are equal )
-OBSERVATION / RESULT / OUTCOME :
 Area of the parallelogram ABCD
 = Area of the Trapezium  ABED  +  Area of the Triangle BCE
-ar (ABCD) = ar (BCE)  +  ar (ABED)
-<nowiki>=             +           =</nowiki>
 Area of the parallelogram ABEF
 = Area of the Trapezium ABED  +  Area of the Triangle ADF
-ar (ABEF)  =  ar (ABED) + ar (ADF)
-<nowiki>=               +         =</nowiki>
-Hence the theorem is verified.
