उत्तर


According to the question,

A Hexagon ABCDEF circumscribe a circle.

To prove: AB + CD + EF = BC + DE + FA

Proof: Tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal.

Hence, we have

AM = RA  ...Equation 1 [tangents from point A]

BM = BN  ...Equation 2 [tangents from point B]

CO = NC  ...Equation 3 [tangents from point C]

OD = DP  ...Equation 4 [tangents from point D]

EQ = PE  ...Equation 5 [tangents from point E]

QF = FR  ...Equation 6 [tangents from point F] [equation 1] + [equation 2] + [equation 3] + [equation 4] + [equation 5] + [equation 6]

AM + BM + CO + OD + EQ + QF = RA + BN + NC + DP + PE + FR

On rearranging, we get,

(AM + BM) + (CO + OD) + (EQ + QF) = (BN + NC) + (DP + PE) + (FR + RA)

AB + CD + EF = BC + DE + FA

Hence Proved!
