Answer:
Converse of Basic proportionality Theorem
Statement : If a line divide any two sides of a triangle (Δ) in the same ration, then the line must be parallel (||) to third side.
If
DE. AD = EC. AE
then DE||BC.
Prove that : DE||BC.
Given in ΔABC, D and E are two points of AB and AC respectively, such that,
DBAD = ECAE ______ (1)
Let us assume that in ΔABC, the point F is an intersect on the side AC. So, we can apply the
Thales theorem,
DBAD = FCAF _______ (2)
Simplify (1) and (2)
ECAf = FCAF
adding 1 on both sides
ECAE +1= FCAF +1
⇒
ECAE+EC = FCAF+FC
⇒
EC
AC
=
FC
AF
⇒AC=FC
From the above we can sat that the points E and F are coincide on AC, i.e., DF coincides with DE. Since DF is parallel to BC, DE is also parallel to BC.
∴ Hence, the converse of Basic proportionality Theorem is proved.
