Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]\frac{AD}{DC}=\frac{BE}{EC}[/tex]

To Prove:

AB║DE

Solution:

Since, corresponding sides of ΔACB and ΔDCE are proportional,

[tex]\frac{AD}{DC}=\frac{BE}{EC}[/tex]

Both the triangles will be similar.

ΔACB ~ ΔDCE [By SAS property of similarity]

Therefore, ∠1 ≅ 2 [CPCTC]

Since, ∠1 and ∠2 are the corresponding angles

Therefore, AB║DE [Converse of corresponding angles theorem]
