CBSE:10th Math :Chapter Triangles : Solved Concept builder theorems




If a line divides any two sides of a triangles proportionally then the line is parallel to the third side
Statement: If a line divides any two sides of a triangles proportionally (in same ratio), then the line is parallel to the third side.

Proof: We are given ABC 
AD / BD = AE / CE

We have to prove: DE is parallel to BC

Let DE's not parallel to BC then an another line DE' is parallel to BC.

Now

AD / BD = AE / CE [Given]

And AD / BD = AE' / CE' [Thales Theorem]

Therefore AE / CE = AE' / CE'

i.e. AE / CE + 1 = AE' / CE' + 1

i.e. AE + CE / CE = AE' + CE' / CE' 

i.e. CE = CE'

But this is not possible until E and E' is coincident.

Thus, our assumption is wrong and DE is parallel to BC.

Q  Name the cells having branches structure. Ans Nerve Cell. Q Why cells could not be observed before seventeenth century? Ans Cells could not be observed before seventeenth century because till that time microscope was not invented. Q Why plant cell have cell wall? Ans Plant cells need protection against variations in temperature, high wind speed, atmospheric moisture, etc. They are exposed to these variations because they cannot move. That's why they have cell wall. Q Which organism has the smallest cell? Ans  Mycoplasmas, a bacteria has the smallest cell of the size of 0.1 micron i.e. ten thousandth part of a mill metre.
