I WILL FAIL IF I MISS THIS??? PLEASE HELP!!!
Theorem: A line parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other two proportionately. In the figure below, segment DE is parallel to segment BC and segment EF is parallel to AB:
Which statement can be proved true using the given theorem? (6 points) Segment BD = 32 Segment BD = 36 Segment BF = 15 Segment BF = 18
If a line is parallel to one side of a triangle and intersects the other two sides, then it divides them proportionally. Given segs DE || BC Applying the theorem, this proportion results: 16 24 ---- = ---- DB 36 16 2 --- = ---- DB 3 2 * DB = 16 * 3 DB = ? |dw:1477824496087:dw|
