Correct Answer: $1 : 2$
Solution : Given: $\angle$ABC = 90°, AB = BC In $\triangle$ABC, AC 2 = AB 2 + BC 2 = AB 2 + AB 2 = 2AB 2 Since, $\triangle$ACD $\sim$ $\triangle$ABE, $\frac{\text{area of} \triangle ABE}{\text{area of} \triangle ACD}=\frac{AB^2}{AC^2}$ ⇒ $\frac{\text{area of} \triangle ABE}{\text{area of} \triangle ACD}=\frac{AB^2}{2AB^2}$ $\therefore \frac{\text{area of} \triangle ABE}{\text{area of} \triangle ACD}=\frac{1}{2}$ Hence, the correct answer is $1 : 2$.
