Step-by-step explanation:
Data: In a triangle ABC and DEF
angle A = angle D
angle B = angle E
angle C = angle F
To prove: AB/DE=AC/DF=BC/EF
Construction:Mark 'P'on DE and 'Q'on DE,join PQ
Proof: In a triangle ABC and triangle DPQ
angle A=angle D ( Data )
side AB=DP ( Construction )
side AC=DQ ( Construction )
triangle ABC is similar to triangle DPQ( SAS)
side BC=PQ ( CPCT ) equation 1
angle B = angle P ( CPCT )
angle B = angle E ( DATA )
therefore: PQ is parallel to EF ( axion1 )
DP/DE = DQ/DF = PQ/EF ( corollary of thales theorem )
therefore:AB/DE = AC/DF=BC/EF ( from equation 1 and construction )
