A square was cut with two parallel lines that are \(6\) cm apart. One of them goes through the top right corner and the other through the bottom left corner. The three regions obtained this way, two triangles and a parallelogram, have equal areas. What is the area of the square?

In a triangle \(\triangle ABC\), \(D\) is the midpoint of \(BC\), and \(E\) is the midpoint of \(AD\). \(F\) is the intersection of the side \(AC\) with \(BE\). What is the area of the triangle \(\triangle AEF\) as a proportion of the area of the triangle \(\triangle ABC\)?

Let \(ABCD\) be a parallelogram. The segment \(EF\) is parallel to the diagonal \(BD\), and the segment \(EG\) is parallel to the diagonal \(AC\). Show that the areas of the triangles \(\triangle EFD\) and \(\triangle EGC\) are equal.

Today we will solve some problems about finding areas of geometric figures. All you need to know in order to solve every problem in this set is: to calculate the area of a triangle we multiply the length of a side by the length of a height to that side and divide by \(2\), namely:\(\frac12 AB \times CD\), as for rectangle we just multiply two adjacent sides (\(EF \times GF\)), and when we have a circle we calculate the area by \(\pi r^2\), where \(r\) is the radius of the circle.
