Given a rectangle and a equilateral triangle, is it possible to construct a line that bisects the area of the triangle and rectangle?

The pancake theorem guarantees that there is a line that can bisect a rectangle and a triangle simultaneously. The Borsuk Ulam Theorem can be used to prove that theorem. Show that any line through the center of a rectangle bisects the area of triangle simultaneously (the position of the center triangle can be the same as position the center of a rectangle or not)?
