Detailed Solution

Given that in ΔABC, BD = 2DC .
Draw a triangle ABC .
A point D is taken on side BC of triangle ABC such that BD = 2DC .
Also take a point E as a midpoint on BD such that, BE=ED .
Therefore the figure will be,
Question ImageAs BE=ED and BD=2DC .
Therefore, BE = ED = DC .
We know that, median of the triangle divides it into two equal triangles.
Here AE and AD are medians of ΔABD and ΔAEC .
Therefore, ar ΔABD =2ar ΔAED                               ……(1)
And
ar ΔADC =ar ΔAED                                                  ……(2)
Comparing (1) and (2), we get,
ar ΔABD =2ar ΔADC
Hence, the statement is true.
Therefore, option 1 is correct.
