Q9 of 95 Page 14

In Fig. 14.36, ABCD is a parallelogram and E is the mid-point of side BC. If DE and AB when produced meet at F, prove that AF=2AB.

Given,


In a parallelgram ABCD,


E = mid point of side BC


AD ⎸⎸BC


AD ⎸⎸BE


E is mid point of BC


So, in ΔDEC and ΔBEF


BE = EC.. (E is the mid point)


∠DEC = ∠BEF


∠DCB = ∠FBE (vertically opposite angles)


So, ΔDEC ≅ ΔBEF


DC = FB


=AB+DC = FB+AB


=2AB =AF (proved)
