Since ar( ||gm CYXE) = 2. ar(\DeltaACE)  {in part (v)}...................(i)
Also, \DeltaFCB and quadrilateral ACFG lie on the same base FC and between the same parallels FC and BG.
Therefore, ar (quad. ACFG) = 2.ar(\DeltaFCB) ................(ii)

From eq (i) and eq (ii), we get

\small ar(CYXE)=ar(ACFG)
Hence proved
