| Let us construct the perpendicular CH to the ВD diagonal.
CH is the total height for the triangles ВCO and DСO. Since AВСD is a parallelogram, its diagonals at the point of intersection O are divided in half, then OВ = OD.
Svso = ОВ * СН.
Sdso = OD * CH.
And since OB = OD, then Svso = Sdso, which was required to prove.
