उत्तर

In ΔABC, DE || AB. If AB = a, DE = x, BE = b and EC = c. Then x expressed in terms of a, b and c is `underlinebb((ac)/(b + c))`

Explanation:

DE ∥ AB, triangles DEC ∼ ABC.

`(DE)/(AB) = (CE)/(AC)`

Substitute values

DE = x

AB = a

CE = c

AC = b + c (since AE = b and EC = c)

`x/a = c/(b+c)`

`x = (ac)/(b + c)`
