Detailed Solution

Given,
In a parallelogram ABCD, O  is any point on the diagonal B D.
Question ImageJoin AC.
Let AC and BD intersect at point P.
Now P is the mid-point of diagonal AC and BD.
Since diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, BP is the angle bisector of ABC  .
  BP is median of ΔABC   .
  ar ΔPAB =ar ΔPCB  … (1) [Median divides the triangle into to equal parts.]
 Similarly, OP is the median of ΔOAC   .
  ar ΔOAP =ar ΔOCP   … (2) [Median divides the triangle into to equal parts.]
Now on adding (1) & (2), we get,
  ar ΔPAB +ar ΔOAP =ar ΔOCP +ar ΔPCB ar ΔOAB =ar ΔOBC  
Thus, it is true that ar ΔOAB =ar ΔOBC  .
Hence, the correct option is 1.
