प्रश्न
Through the mid-point M of the side CD of a parallelogram ABCD, the line BM is drawn intersecting diagonal AC in L and AD produced in E. Prove that: EL = 2BL.
उत्तर
∠1 = ∠6 ...(Alternate interior angles)
∠2 = ∠3 ...(Vertically opposite angles)
DM = MC ...(M is the mid-point of CD)
∴ ∆DEM ≅ ∆CBM ...(AAS congruence criterion)
So, DE = BC ...(Corresponding parts of congruent triangles)
Also, AD = BC ...(Opposite sides of a parallelogram)
`=>` AE = AD + DE = 2BC
Now, ∠1 = ∠6 and ∠4 = ∠5
∴ ∆ELA ~ ∆BLC ...(AA similarity)
`=> (EL)/(BL) = (EA)/(BC)`
`=> (EL)/(BL) = (2BC)/(BC) = 2`
`=>` EL = 2BL
