उत्तर
Given: In ΔABC, D and E are points on the side AB and AC respectively such that DE || BC and AD : DB = 3 : 1. Also, EA = 3.3cm.
To find: AC
In ∆ABC, DE || BC.
Using corollory of basic proportionality theorem, we have
`(AD)/(AB)=(EA)/(AC)`
`(AD)/(AD+1/3AD)=3.3/(AC)`
`EC =4.4 cm`
Hence the correct answer is `C`
