In the given figure, PS is the bisector of ∠QPR of ΔPQR. Prove that `(QS)/(SR) = (PQ)/(PR)`

उत्तर

Let us draw a line segment RT parallel to SP which intersects extended line segment QP at point T.

Given that, PS is the angle bisector of ∠QPR.

∠QPS = ∠SPR … (1)

By construction,

∠SPR = ∠PRT (As PS || TR) … (2)

∠QPS = ∠QTR (As PS || TR) … (3)

Using these equations, we obtain

∠PRT = ∠QTR

∴ PT = PR

By construction,

PS || TR

By using basic proportionality theorem for ΔQTR,

`(QS)/(SR) = (QP)/(PT)`

`=>(QS)/(SR) = (PQ)/(PR) (∵ PT = PR)`
