Given PB || CF, DP || EF, AB = 2 cm and AC = 8 cm


We know that basic proportionality theorem states that if a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle to intersect the other two sides in distinct points, then the other two sides are divided in the same ratio.


In ΔACF, PB || CF,


Then



And DP || EF
