Step-by-step solution
3 stepsApply the Basic Proportionality Theorem in .
Given that .
According to the Basic Proportionality Theorem, if a line parallel to one side of a triangle intersects the other two sides, then it divides the two sides proportionally.
In , . Therefore, we have:Apply the Basic Proportionality Theorem in .
Given that .
In , . Therefore, we have:Taking the reciprocal of both sides:
This can be written as:
Combine the results from (1) and (2).
From (1), we have .
From (2), we have .
Since both ratios are equal to , they must be equal to each other.This can also be written in ratio form as:
This completes the proof.
