Question

In figure DE || BC.

and AD : DB = 5 : 4 find.

i) DE : BC ii) A(ADE) : A(ABC)

iii) A(DCE) : A(EBD) ​

Answer 1

Answer:

In △ABC, we have

DE||BC

⇒ ∠ADE=∠ABC and ∠AED=∠ACB [Corresponding angles]

Thus, in triangles ADE and ABC, we have

∠A=∠A [Common]

∠ADE=∠ABC

and, ∠AED=∠ACB

∴ △AED∼△ABC [By AAA similarity]

⇒

AB

AD

=

BC

DE

We have,

DB

AD

=

4

5

⇒

AD

DB

=

5

4

⇒

AD

DB

+1=

+1

⇒

AD

DB+AD

=

9

⇒

AD

AB

=

9

⇒

AD

=

∴

BC

DE

=

In △DFE and △CFB, we have

∠1=∠3 [Alternate interior angles]

∠2=∠4 [Vertically opposite angles]

Therefore, by AA-similarity criterion, we have

△DFE∼△CFB

⇒

Area(△CFB)

Area(△DFE)

=

BC

DE

⇒

Area(△CFB)

Area(△DFE)

=(
