Answer:
Given:
Let ABC be the triangle
AD be internal bisector of ∠BAC which meet BC at D
To prove:
DC BD= AC AB
Draw CE∥DA to meet BA produced at E
Since CE∥DA and AC is the transversal.
∠DAC=∠ACE (alternate angle ) .... (1)
∠BAD=∠AEC (corresponding angle) .... (2)
Since AD is the angle bisector of ∠A
∴∠BAD=∠DAC .... (3)
From (1), (2) and (3), we have
∠ACE=∠AEC
In △ACE,
⇒AE=AC
(∴ Sides opposite to equal angles are equal)
In △BCE,
⇒CE∥DA
⇒ DC BD = AE BA ....(Thales Theorem)
⇒ DC BD = AC AB ....(∴AE=AC)

Answer:
this is a angle bisector theorem
Step-by-step explanation:
in triangle ABC ,AD is the internal bisector
AB/AC=BD/DC
draw a line through C parallel to AB extend AD to meet line through C at E
