Questions and Answers

In triangle ABC, if $DE$ is parallel to $BC$, which statement is true?

  • $\frac{AD}{AE} = \frac{DB}{EC}$
  • $\frac{AD}{DB} = \frac{AB}{AC}$
  • $\frac{AD}{AC} = \frac{DB}{BE}$
  • $\frac{AD}{DB} = \frac{AE}{EC}$ (correct)

What can be concluded if $\frac{AD}{DB} = \frac{AE}{EC}$ in triangle $ABC$?

  • $BD$ bisects $\angle BAC$
  • $AD$ is parallel to $EC$
  • $AE$ is parallel to $BC$
  • $DE$ is parallel to $BC$ (correct)

In triangle $ABC$, $AD$ is the bisector of $\angle BAC$. Which of the following is true?

  • $\frac{BD}{DC} = \frac{AB}{AC}$ (correct)
  • $\frac{BD}{BC} = \frac{AC}{AB}$
  • $\frac{BA}{BD} = \frac{CA}{AD}$
  • $\frac{BD}{AB} = \frac{AC}{DC}$

Study Notes

Proportionality Theorems

  • If DE is parallel to BC, then the ratio of AD to DB is equal to the ratio of AE to EC.
  • Conversely, if the ratio of AD to DB is equal to the ratio of AE to EC, then DE is parallel to BC.

Angle Bisector Theorem

  • If AD is the bisector of angle BAC, then the ratio of BD to DC is equal to the ratio of AB to AC.

Three Parallel Lines and Transversals

  • If three lines AB, CD, and EF are parallel, and two transversals l and m intersect them, then the ratio of AB to CD is equal to the ratio of BC to EF.
