BPT theorem :

Basic Proportionality theorem which is used in the chapter SIMILAR TRIANGLES.

its statement is :

IF A LINE IS DRAWN PARALLEL TO ONE SIDE OF A TRIANGLE TO INTERSECT THE OTHER 2 SIDES IN DISTINCT POINTS , THEN THE OTHER 2 SIDES ARE DIVIDED INTO THE SAME RATIO.

its converse is :

IN A TRIANGLE , IF TWO SIDES ARE DIVIDED IN SAME RATIO , THEN THE LINE PASSING through THE TRIANGLE IS PARALLEL TO THE BASE OF THE TRIANGLE.

→Thales theorem is also known as Basic Proportionality Theorem.

Statement → If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle to intersect the other two sides in distinct points,then the other two sided are divided in the same ratio.

Converse → If a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, then the line must be parallel to the third side.

Hope it helps
