Answers
Question:
Please see the attached diagram
CD is perpendicular to AB.
∠ACE = ∠BCE, CE is angular bisector of angle C.
To prove that AD/BD = AE²/BE²
Step-by-step explanation:
On ΔABC and ΔACD
∠ACB = ∠ADC,
∠DAC = ∠CAB
So ΔABC is similar to ΔACD
We can derive from similarity of triangle rule,
AC/AB=AD/AC
AC²= AB×AD --------------------------E1
similarly ΔBCD and ΔBAC are also similar triangles.
We can derive from similarity of triangle rule,
BC/BA = BD/BC
BC²= BA×BD -----------------------------E2
∴ Dividing E2 by E1 we get
BC²/AC²=AB×BD/AB×AD
∴ BC²/AC² =BD/AD -----------------------------------E3
In ΔACB, CE is the angle bisector of ∠ACB.
Hence from Triangle bisector theorem, E cuts AB in the ratio of sides of triangle.
That is AE/BE = AC/BC.
Squaring we get, BC²/AC² = AE²/BE² ---------------------------E4
From E3 and E4, we can say
AD/BD = AE²/BE²
Hence proved.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Concept:
Angle bisector theorem:
When vertical angle of a triangle is bisected, the bisector divides the base into two segments which have the ratio as the order of other two sides.
From diagram, it is clear that
ΔADC and ΔCDB are similar.
Then,
since CE is the bisector of ∠ACB,
by angle bisector theorem,
