Answer:
this is the answer...
Step-by-step explanation:
We have, AB = 5.6 cm, AD = 1.4 cm, AC = 7.2 cm and AE = 1.8 cm
∴ DB = AB – AD
= 5.6 – 1.4
⇒ DB = 4.2 cm
And, EC = AC – AE = 7.2 – 1.8
⇒ EC = 5.4 cm
Now, AD/DB = 1.4/4.2 = 1/3
And, AE/EC = 1.8/5.4 = 1/3
Thus, DE divides sides AB and AC of ΔABC in the same ratio. Therefore, by the converse of basic proportionality theorem.
