SInce ||gm BYXD and \DeltaABD are on the same base BD and between same parallels BD and AX
Therefore, ar(\DeltaABD) = 1/2. ar(||gm BYXD)..........(i)

But, \DeltaABD \cong \DeltaMBC (proved in 1st part)
Since congruent triangles have equal areas.
Therefore, By using equation (i) we get
 \small ar(BYXD)=2ar(MBC)
Hence proved
