3AX = 2AC
Hence proved
Step-by-step explanation:
In the given parallelogram, ABCD
P is midpoint of side CD as shown in figure.
Join BP which intersect diagonal AC at x.
Please find attachment for figure.
In ΔABX and ΔCPX
∠ABX = ∠CPX ( alternate angle of parallel line, CD||AB)
∠BAX = ∠PCX ( alternate angle of parallel line, CD||AB)
Therefore, ΔABX ≈ ΔCPX (By AA similarity property)
If two triangles are similar then their corresponding sides are in proportion.
Therefore,
\dfrac{AB}{PC}=\dfrac{AX}{CX}
But AB = 2PC (AB=CD opposite side of parallelogram and P is mid point of CD)
CX = AC - AX
Put the value in equation
\dfrac{2PC}{PC}=\dfrac{AX}{AC-AX}
2AC-2AX=AX
2AC=3AX
hence proved
Answer:
this is ax and ac not equal
