प्रश्न

In each of the given pairs of triangles, find which pair of triangles are similar. State the similarity criterion and write the similarity relation in symbolic form: 

 

उत्तर

We have: 

`(AB)/(DF)=3/6=1/2` and `(BC)/(DE)=4.5/9=1/2` 

But , ∠ABC ≠ ∠EDF (Included angles are not equal)
Thus, this triangles are not similar.

In the given figure, X is any point in the interior of triangle. Point X is joined to vertices of triangle. Seg PQ || seg DE, seg QR || seg EF. Fill in the blanks to prove that, seg PR || seg DF. 

Proof :  In ΔXDE, PQ || DE         ...`square`

∴ `"XP"/square = square/"QE"`                               ...(I) (Basic proportionality theorem)

In ΔXEF, QR || EF                       ...`square`

∴ `square/square = square/square                                                           ..."(II)" square`

∴ `square/square = square/square`                                ...from (I) and (II)

∴ seg PR || seg DF           ...(converse of basic proportionality theorem)
