Answers
Answer:
Using Theorem 6.2, prove that the line joining the mid-points of any two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side. (Recall that you have done it in Class IX).
Theorem 6.2: If a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, then the line is parallel to the third side.
Step-by-step explanation:

Correct Question:-
Prove theroam 6.2 :- If line a divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, then the line is parellel to third side.
Given:-
∆ABC and a line DE intersecting AB at D and E.
Such that
To prove:-
DE || BC
Construction:-
Draw DE' parallel to BC
Proof:-
Since DE' || BC
by theoram 6.1 : if a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle to intersecting other two sides not distinct points the other two sided are divided in the same ratio.
____(1)
And given that,
_____(2)
Now,
from (1) and (2)
Adding 1 on both side.
Thus, E and E' coincide
DE' || BC
DE || BC.
Hence, proved.
Note:-
See the figure for identification.
