Let 2a be the side of those squares and x the   larger side of the yellow triangle.    A_(rect) = 2a ∙ 4a =8a^2    by product of chords:   a(√5)∙x = a^2    x = (a/( (√5)))   the yellow triangle is a special one k, 2k, k(√5)   from this we get the height and the base.   A_△  = (((2a)/5))^2 ∙(1/2) = ((2a^2 )/(25)) ⇒   (A_△ /A_(rect) ) = ((2a^2 )/(25))∙(1/(8a^2 )) = (1/(100))

((CE)/(CD))=((BC)/(AC)) ⇒CE=((1×1)/( (√5)))=((√5)/( 5))=((AC)/5)  ((CE)/(AC))=(1/5)  (A_(yellow) /Δ_(ACF) )=((1/5))^2 =(1/(25))  Δ_(ACF) =(A_(rectangle) /4)  ⇒(A_(yellow) /A_(rectangle) )=(1/(25))×(1/4)=(1/(100))

$$\frac{{CE}}{{CD}}=\frac{{BC}}{{AC}}\:\Rightarrow{CE}=\frac{\mathrm{1}×\mathrm{1}}{\:\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{5}}}{\:\mathrm{5}}=\frac{{AC}}{\mathrm{5}} \\ $$$$\frac{{CE}}{{AC}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{5}} \\ $$$$\frac{{A}_{{yellow}} }{\Delta_{{ACF}} }=\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{5}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} =\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{25}} \\ $$$$\Delta_{{ACF}} =\frac{{A}_{{rectangle}} }{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\frac{{A}_{{yellow}} }{{A}_{{rectangle}} }=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{25}}×\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{100}} \\ $$
