Detailed Solution

Given a figure in which X and Y are the midpoints of AC and AB respectively.
Question ImageSince PQ || XY || BC,
Area of triangle CXY = Area of triangle BXY    ---- 1
As, both are on same base and between parallel.
Similarly for quadrilateral,
Area of XYAQ = Area of XYAP  ----- 2
Now from both equations 1 and 2,
Area of triangle CXY + Area of XYAQ = Area of triangle BXY + Area of XYAP
Area of triangle ABP = Area of triangle ACQ
Given statement is true.
Hence, option 1 is correct.
