CISCE: Class 10
Basic Proportionality Theorem
Statement:
If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle, it divides the other two sides in the same ratio.

To Prove:
\[\frac{\mathrm{AD}}{\mathrm{DB}}=\frac{\mathrm{AE}}{\mathrm{EC}}\]
Proof:
-
A line parallel to a side of a triangle forms equal corresponding angles.
-
Hence, the two triangles formed are similar (AAA similarity).
-
In similar triangles, corresponding sides are proportional.
Therefore, the line divides the two sides in the same ratio.
\[\frac{\mathrm{AD}}{\mathrm{DB}}=\frac{\mathrm{AE}}{\mathrm{EC}}\]
CISCE: Class 10
Converse of Basic Proportionality Theorem
Statement:
If a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, then the line is parallel to the third side.
To Prove:
-
Assume a line through point D parallel to BC meets AC at F.
-
By BPT, \[\frac{\mathrm{AD}}{\mathrm{DB}}=\frac{\mathrm{AF}}{\mathrm{FC}}\]
- Given, \[\frac{\mathrm{AD}}{\mathrm{DB}}=\frac{\mathrm{AE}}{\mathrm{EC}}\]
-
Hence,\[\frac{AF}{FC}=\frac{AE}{EC}\]
-
⇒ Points E and F coincide.
Therefore,
