प्रश्न

In the figure, DE || AC and DC || AP. Prove that `"BE"/"EC" = "BC"/"CP"`

योग

उत्तर

In ΔABC, DE || AC

∴ `"BE"/"EC" = "BD"/"DA"` ......(i)(By Basic Proportionality theorem)

In ΔABP, CD || AP

∴ `"BC"/"CP" = "BD"/"DA"`.......(ii)(By Proportionality theorem)

From (i) and (ii)

`"BE"/"EC" = "BC"/"CP"`.
