उत्तर

In the given figure MBC is shown. DE is parallel to BC. If AD = 5 cm, DB = 2.5 cm and BC = 12 cm, then DE is equal to 8 cm.

Explanation:

Given 

AD = 5 cm, DB = 2.5 cm, BC = 12 cm

DE || BC

ΔABC ~ ΔADE

`(AD)/(AB) = (DE)/(BC)`

⇒ `5/7.5 = (DE)/(12)`  

⇒ `50/75 = (DE)/(12)`

⇒ `2/3 = (DE)/(12)`

∴ DE = 8 cm
