In the figure, if B1, B2, B3,...... and A1,A2, A3,..... have been marked at
equal distances. In what ratio C divides AB?
plz answer this question
Answers
Answer: 8:5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we've been given in the question that b1,b2,b3,.... and a1,a2,a3 are marked at equal distances it means that to obtain the ratio we divide both sides 8 and 5
--> AA8 / BB5 = 8/5
which gives ratio 8:5

Given : B1, B2, B3,. and A1,A2, A3,. . have been marked at equal distances
To Find : C divides AB in what ratio
Solution:
in Δ B₅CB & Δ A₈CA
∠B₅CB = ∠ A₈CA( vertically opposite angles)
∠CBB₅ = ∠CAA₈ ( alternate angles)
∠CB₅B = ∠CA₈A ( alternate angles)
Δ B₅CB ≈ Δ A₈CA (AAA)
Similar triangles corresponding angles are congruent and the corresponding sides are proportional
=> BC/AC = BB₅ /AA₈
B1, B2, B3,. and A1,A2, A3,. . have been marked at equal distances
=>BB₅ = 5x
AA₈ = 8x
BC/AC = 5x / 8x
=> BC/AC = 5/8
=> AC/BC = 8/5
C divided AB in 8 : 5 ratio
