If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle intersecting the other two sides in distinct points, then the other two sides are divided in the same ratio.

TO PROVE:AP/PB = AQ/QC

PROOF:

CONSTRUCTION: Join the vertex B of ΔABC to Q and the vertex C to P to form the lines BQ and CP and then drop a perpendicular QN to the side AB and also draw PM⊥AC as shown in the given figure.

Now the area of ∆APQ = 1/2 × AP × QN (Since, area of a triangle= 1/2× Base × Height)

Similarly, area of ∆PBQ= 1/2 × PB × QN

area of ∆APQ = 1/2 × AQ × PM

Also,area of ∆QCP = 1/2 × QC × PM ………… (1)

Now, if we find the ratio of the area of triangles ∆APQand ∆PBQ, we have

ar(ΔAPC)/ar(ΔPBQ)=1/2×AP×QN/1/2×PB×QN=AP/QN

SIMILARLY ar(ΔAPQ)/ar(ΔQCP)=AQ/QC..........(2)

According to the property of triangles, the triangles drawn between the same parallel lines and on the same base have equal areas.

Therefore, we can say that ∆PBQ and QCP have the same area.

area of ∆PBQ = area of ∆QCP …………..(3)

Therefore, from the equations (1), (2) and (3) we can say that,

AP/PB = AQ/QC

Basic Proportionality Theorem (BPT) or Thales theorem

\Large\bold\blue{Statement}

A straight line drawn parallel to a side of triangle intersecting the other two sides, divides the sides in the same ratio.

\Large\bold{\underline{\pink{Proof}}}

\Large\bold{\underline{\green{Given: }}}

In Δ ABC, D is a point on AB and E is a point on AC.

\Large\bold\purple{To \:prove:}

\frac{AD}{DB}  =  \frac{AE}{EC}

\Large\bold{\underline{\orange{Construction:}}}

Draw a line DE || BC

\Large\bold{\underline{\blue{Steps:}}}

∠ ABC = ∠ADE =∠1 [Corresponding angles are equal because DE || BC]

∠ACB = ∠AED = ∠2 [Corresponding Angel's are equal because DE || BC]

∠DAE = ∠BAE = ∠3 [Both triangles have a common angle]

ΔABC ~ ΔADE

 \frac{AB }{AD} =   \frac{AC}{AE}

 \frac{AD+DB}{AD}  =  \frac{AE+EC}{AE}

1 +  \frac{DB}{AD}  =  1 + \frac{EC}{AE}

 \frac{DB}{AD}  =  \frac{EC}{AE}

 \frac{AD}{DB}  =  \frac{AE}{EC}
