state and prove bpt theorem when construction is DN perpendicular to AE and EM perpendicular to AD
Answers
Answer:
BPT theorem states that if a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle to intersect the other 2 sides in distinct points, the other two sides are divided in the same ratio.
Given:
A Triangle ABC with DE parallel to BC
To Prove:
Construction:
Construct DN perpendicular to AE and EM perpendicular to AD.Join BE and DC
Proof:
Consider ADE , AE is the base and DN is the height
Therefore,
Similarly, considering AD as the base and EM as the height
Now, Consider BDE
Now, Consider CDE
Dividing (1) by (4) we get,
Similarly (2)÷(3) we get,
Now,BDE and DEC are on the same base DE and between the same parallels BC and DE
So,
From (5), (6), (7) we can conclude that
HENCE PROVED

Answer:-
PROOF OF BPT
Given: In ΔABC, DE is parallel to BC
Line DE intersects sides AB and AC in points D and E respectively.
To Prove: => AD/DB = AE/AC
Construction: Draw EF ⟂ AD and DG⟂ AE and join the segments BE and CD.
Proof:
Area of Triangle= ½ × base × height
In ΔADE and ΔBDE,
=> Ar(ADE) / Ar(DBE)
= ½ ×AD×EF / ½ ×DB×EF
= AD/DB ......(1)
In ΔADE and ΔCDE,
=> Ar(ADE)/Ar(ECD)
= ½×AE×DG / ½×EC×DG
= AE/EC ........(2)
Note => that ΔDBE and ΔECD have a common base DE and lie between the same parallels DE and BC. Also, we know that triangles having the same base and lying between the same parallels are equal in area.
So, we can say that
Ar(ΔDBE)=Ar(ΔECD)
Therefore,
A(ΔADE)/A(ΔBDE)
= A(ΔADE)/A(ΔCDE)
Therefore,
=> AD/DB = AE/AC
Hence Proved.
