Detailed Solution

Given, on joining midpoints of a triangle along with a vertex as fourth point makes a parallelogram.
Question ImageLet D, E and F respectively be the mid points of the sides BC, CA and AB.
Then, all four triangles have equal area.
ar ΔAFE =ar ΔBFD =ar ΔEDC =ar ΔDEF   ar ΔDEF = 1 4 ar ΔABC  
Similarly, ar ΔAFE = 1 4 ar ΔABC  
ar AFDE =ar ΔAFE +ar ΔDEF ar AFDE =2 1 4 ar ΔABC  [Proved above] ar AFDE = 1 2 ar ΔABC  
Hence, the correct option is 2.
