# Draw AB  ∥  FC  and  AB is the base.  
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.

#Find the area of Trapezium ABED by using finding an area tool
Parallelograms ABCD  and  ABEF are

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 parallelogram ABCD
   −
= Area of the Trapezium  ABED  +  Area of the Triangle BCE
+
= 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 parallelogram ABEF
    
= Area of the Trapezium ABED  +  Area of the Triangle ADF
 
= Area of the Trapezium ABED  +  Area of the Triangle ADF
  −
ar (ABEF)  =  ar (ABED) + ar (ADF)
  −
  −
<nowiki>=              +        =</nowiki>

Hence the theorem is verified.
