Let AB = x, BC = x

Area of an equilateral triangle of side a = {tex}\frac { \sqrt { 3 } } { 4 }{/tex}a2
Area of {tex}\triangle{/tex}BCD = {tex}\frac { \sqrt { 3 } } { 4 }{/tex}x2 ..(i)
Now side AC = {tex}\sqrt { x ^ { 2 } + x ^ { 2 } } = \sqrt { 2 x ^ { 2 } } = x \sqrt { 2 }{/tex} (by pythagoras theorem)
Area of {tex}\triangle{/tex}ACE = {tex}\frac { \sqrt { 3 } } { 4 } ( \sqrt { 2 } x ) ^ { 2 }{/tex} = 2
{tex}\frac { \sqrt { 3 } } { 4 }{/tex}x2 = 2. Area of BCD [from (i)]
{tex}\therefore{/tex} ar{tex}\triangle{/tex}BCD = {tex}\frac{1}{2}{/tex}area of {tex}\triangle{/tex}ACE.
