Solution 1:

Let $D$ be the midpoint of $AC$. Drop the perpendicular lines from $A,$ $B,$ $C$ and $D$ to $\overleftrightarrow{EG}$.

Since $DD'$ is the midline of trapezium $AA'C'C$,

$$DD'=\frac{AA'+CC'}2.$$

As $G$ is the centroid,

$$\frac{BB'}{DD'}=\frac{BG}{GD}=\frac21.$$

Therefore, $BB'=AA'+CC'.$

Thus, $[\triangle BEG]=[\triangle AEG]+[\triangle CEG].$
