6. Let in triangle ABC, a line drawn parallel to BC cuts AB and AC at P and Q respectively.



To Prove:-


Let the point P divide AB in the ratio of l: m where l and m are natural numbers. Divide AP into
'l' and PB into 'm' equal parts. Through each of these points on AB, draw lines parallel to BC to
cut AC.

PROOF:
Step 1: Cut AP into equal parts and draw lines through these points parallel to BC
Step 2: By intercept theorem,AQ is cut into equal parts
Step 3: By Step 1,QC is cut into m equal parts
Step 4:
By construction,
Step 5:
By step 2 and 3,
Step 6:
By step 4 and 5,
Hence the proof..

7.
In ABC, P and Q are the two points of AB and AC respectively,
such that,

To Prove
PQ || BC

Proof
In ABC,
given,

Let us assume that in ABC, the point R is on line AC such that PR is parallel to BC.
So by Thale's Theorem,

Simplify, in (1) and (2), we get

Adding 1 on both sides, we get



RC=QC

From the above, we can say that the points Q and R coincide on AC.
i.e., PQ coincides with PR.

Since PR is parallel to BC, hence PQ is also parallel BC



11.In ABC, right angled at B, BDAC

To prove : ADB, BCD are similar to each other and also similar to triangle ABC.
Proof :
(1) In ABC, B = 90
BAC + BCA = 90 ..... (1)
In DBC, D = 90
DBC + BCD = 90 ..... (2)
Since, BCD = BCA
From (1) and (2), we get
BAC = DBC
BAD = DBC ..... (3)
Now in ADB and BDC, we have
BAD = DBC and ADB = BDC = 90
ABD is similar to BDC [AA similarity]

(2) In ADB and ABC,
ABC = ADB = 90
A is common
ADB and ABC are similar

(3) In BDC and triangle ABC,
BDC = ABC = 90
C is common
ABC and BDC are similar

13.

Given : ABC is a right triangle. ACB = 90. P and Q are points on CA and CB respectively.
CP: PA = 2:1 and CQ: QB = 2:1
To prove :
(1) 9AQ
2
= 9AC
2
+ 4BC
2

(2) 9BP
2
= 9BC
2
+ 4AC
2

(3) 9(AQ
2
+ BP
2
) = 13AB
2

Proof : In right ACQ,
AQ
2
= AC
2
+ CQ
2


Similarly in right BCP,
9BP
2
= 9BC
2
+ 4AC
2
(2)
Adding (1) and (2), we get
9AQ
2
+ 9BP
2
= 9AC
2
+ 4BC
2
+ 9BC
2
+ 4AC
2

9(AQ
2
+ BP
2
) = 13AC
2
+ 13BC
2

9(AQ
2
+ BP
2
) = 13(AC
2
+ BC
2
) = 13AB
2
(In right ABC, AC
2
+ BC
2
= AB
2
)
