Answer:

Heyaa

Thales theorem is also known as Basic Proportionality theorem.

According to it if a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle intersecting the other two sides, then it divides the two sides in the same ratio.

Explanation is the in pic.

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}
