Let $A$ be a vertex of a regular star-shaped pentagon, the angle at $A$ being less than $180^o$ and the broken line $AA_1BB_1CC_1DD_1EE_1$ being its contour. Lines $AB$ and $DE$ meet at $F$. Prove that polygon $ABB_1CC_1DED_1$ has the same area as the quadrilateral $AD_1EF$. Note: A regular star pentagon is a figure formed along the diagonals of a regular pentagon.
