Basic Proportionality Theorem states that, if a line is parallel to a side of a triangle which intersects the other sides in two distinct points, then the line divides those sides of the triangle in proportion.
Let ABC be the triangle.
The line l parallel to BC intersect AB at D and AC at E.
We have to prove that :
Join BE, CD.
Draw EF perpendicular to AB, DG perpendicular to CA.
Since, EF is perpendicular to AB,
EF is the height of triangles ADE and DBE.
Similarly,
But ∆DBE and ∆DCE are on the same base DE and between the same parallel straight line BC and DE.
Area of ∆DBE = Area of ∆DCE....(3)
From (1), (2) and (3) we have :
Hence proved !!
