triangle relation equation of a pentagon [closed]
$begingroup$
ABCDE is an irregular-shaped pentagon. No angle is more than 180.
prove that,
area of (ABD)(AEC)-area of (ABC)(ADE) = area of (ABE)*(ACD)

We can use coordinate geometry to solve this problem. Let side AE lie on the x-axis and point A is $(0,0)$, B is $(x_1, y_1)$, C is $(x_2, y_2)$, D is $(x_3, y_3)$, E is $(x_4, 0)$.
In coordinate geometry we have a way to find the area of any polygon using its vertices.
Area ABD is $frac{1}{2}(x_1y_3 - x_3y_1)$
Area AEC is $frac{1}{2}(x_4y_2)$
Area ABC is $frac{1}{2}(x_1y_2 - x_2y_1)$
Area ADE is $frac{1}{2}(x_4y_3)$
Area ABE is $frac{1}{2}(x_4y_1)$
Area ACD is $frac{1}{2}(x_2y_3 - x_3y_2)$
Hence Area ABD x Area AEC - Area ABC x Area ADE is
$frac{1}{4}(x_2x_4y_1y_3 - x_3x_4y_1y_2)$
For the right hand side Area ABE x Area ACD is the same. Hence proved.
