Answer #1

The correct answer is third option - triangles E and F. With an effective price ceiling, the dead weight loss is the area which is not under either consumer surplus or producer surplus. The equilibrium price was P​​​​​​e and areas D , C and F were the producer surplus and area A,B and E were under consumer surplus. But when price is P​​​​​​c the areas E and F are not under any surplus and it is now the dead weight loss.
