GIVEN :-
LM || CB
LN || CD
TO PROVE :-
AM/AN = AB/AD
PROOF :-
In △ABC,
LM∥BC
∴ By proportionality theorem,
AM/AB=AL/AC............(1)
Similarly,
In △ADC,
LN∥CD
∴ By proportionality theorem,
AN/AD=AL/AC............(2)
∴ from (1) and (2),
AM/AB=AN/AD

In the given figure, we can see, LM || CB,
By using basic proportionality theorem, we get,
AM/AB = AL/AC……………………..(i)
Similarly, given, LN || CD and using basic proportionality theorem,
∴AN/AD = AL/AC………………(ii)
From equation (i) and (ii), we get,
AM/AB = AN/AD
Hence, proved.
