Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: ABC is a triangle with XY | | AC divides the triangle into two parts equal in areas.
To find AX/AB.
Proof:
ar △BXY = ar trap. XYCA(Given) ∴ ar △BXY = 1/2ar△ABC
In △BXY and BAC,
∠BXY = ∠BAC (Corresponding angles)
∠BYX = ∠BCA (Corresponding angles)
△BXY ~ △BAC (AA similarity)
∴ Area △BXY/Area △BAC = BX2/ AB2 (Areas of similar triangle)
∴ 1/2 = BX2/ AB2
∴ 1/√2 = BX/AB
∴ AB - BX = √2 BX - BX
∴ AX = (√2 - 1)BX
AX/AB = (√2-1)BX/√28x = √2-1/√2
