Answer»

Data : CD and OH are respectively the bisectors of ∠ACB and ∠EGF such that D and H 11e on sides AB and FE of ∆ABC and ∆EFG respectively. 

∆ABC ~ ∆EFG 

To Prove: 

(i) \(\frac{CD}{GH} = \frac{AC}{FG}\)

(ii) ∆DCB ~ ∆HGE 

(iii) ∆DCA ~ ∆HGF 

Proof: ∆ABC ~ ∆EFG (data given) 

∴ Their corresponding sides are in proportion.

 ∴ \(\frac{AB}{EF} = \frac{BC}{FG} = \frac{AC}{EG}\)

∠B = ∠F, ∠A = ∠E, ∠C = ∠G. 

(i) In ∆ADC and ∆EHG, 

∠A = ∠E . ∠ACD = ∠EGH 

∴ Their sides are in proportion.

 ∴ \(\frac{CD}{GH} = \frac{AC}{FG}\)

(ii) In ∆DCB and ∆HGE. 

∴ \(\frac{CD}{GH} = \frac{AC}{FG}\)

∴ ∆DCB ~ ∆HGE 

(iii) In ∆DCA and ∆HGE, 

∴ \(\frac{DC}{GH} = \frac{AD}{EH} = \frac{AC}{EG}\)

∴ ∆DCA ~ ∆HGE
