Answer:

Converse of Basic Proportionality Theorem: If a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, then the line must be parallel to the third side. Given : A Δ ABC and a line intersecting AB in D and AC in E, ... Then there must be another line that is parallel to BC.

Step-by-step explanation:

Converse of Basic Proportionality Theorem: If a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, then the line must be parallel to the third side.

If AD AE

---- = ------ then DE || BC

DB EC

Given : A Δ ABC and a line intersecting AB in D and AC in E,

such that AD / DB = AE / EC.

Prove that : DE || BC

Let DE is not parallel to BC. Then there must be another line that is parallel to BC.

Let DF || BC.

1) DF || BC 1) By assumption

2) AD / DB = AF / FC 2) By Basic Proportionality theorem

3) AD / DB = AE /EC 3) Given

4) AF / FC = AE / EC 4) By transitivity (from 2 and 3)

5) (AF/FC) + 1 = (AE/EC) + 1 5) Adding 1 to both side

6) (AF + FC )/FC = (AE + EC)/EC 6) By simplifying

7) AC /FC = AC / EC 7) AC = AF + FC and AC = AE + EC

8) FC = EC 8) As the numerator are same so denominators are equal

This is possible when F and E are same. So DF is the line DE itself.

∴ DF || BC

Hopefully It's help you

Have a great day............
