उत्तर १

Construction: Join AF intersecting CD at X.

In ΔABF, DX || AB 

`"FD"/"DB"="FX"/"XA"`  ...(1) (By Basic proportionality theorem)

In ΔAEF, XC || FE 

`"FX"/"XA"="EC"/"CA"` ... (2) (By Basic proportionality theorem)

From (1) and (2), we get 

`"FD"/"DB"="EC"/"CA"`

`4/8 = x/12`

x = 6 

Now, AE = AC + CE

= 12 + 6

= 18

उत्तर २

line AB || line CD || line FE   ...(given)

∴ `("BD")/("DF") = ("AC")/("CE")`   ...(Property of three parallel lines and their transversals)

∴ `8/4 = 12/x`

∴ x = `(12 xx 4)/8`

∴ x = 6 units

Now, AE = AC + CE [A - C - E]

= 12 + x

= 12 + 6

= 18 units

∴ x = 6 units and AE = 18 units

Proof : 

In ΔABC, ray BD bisects ∠ABC.

∴ `("AB")/("BC") = (......)/(......)`   ......(i) (By angle bisector theorem)

In ΔABC, seg DE || side BC

∴ `("AE")/("EB") = ("AD")/("DC")`   ....(ii) `square`

∴ `("AB")/square = square/("EB")`   [from (i) and (ii)]

∴ `("AB")/square = square/("EB")`   ...[from (I) and (II)]
