D and E are points on the sides AB and AC respectively of a ΔABC such that DE║BC
If AD = 3.6cm, AB = 10cm and AE = 4.5cm, find EC and AC.
उत्तर
In Δ ABC, it is given that DE ∥ BC.
Applying Thales’ theorem, we get:
`(AD)/(DB)=(AE)/(EC)`
∵ AD = 3.6 cm , AB = 10 cm, AE = 4.5cm
∴ DB = 10 − 3.6 = 6.4cm
Or,` 3.6/6.4=4.5/(EC)`
Or, EC =`( 6.4×4.5)/3.6`
Or, EC= 8 cm
Thus, AC = AE + EC
= 4.5 + 8 = 12.5 cm
