Answer» Step-by-step explanation: The BASIC proportionality THEOREM STATES that if a LINE is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle and it intersects the other two sides at two distinct POINTS then it divides the two sides in the same ratio. It is given that PE=4 cm, QE=4.5 cm, PF=8 cm and FR=9 cm. Using the basic proportionality theorem, we have EQ PE
= 4.5 4
=0.88 FR PF
= 9 8
=0.88
Since EQ PE
= FR PF
Hence, EF is parallel to QR. |
