Question 7 (Choice - 2) In the given figure, AD = 2cm, BD = 3 cm, AE = 3.5 cm and AC = 7 cm. Is DE parallel to BC ? Here, šØš«/š«š©=š/š šØš¬/š¬šŖ= š“šø/(š“š¶ ā š“šø) =3.5/(7 ā 3.5) =3.5/3.5=š Since šØš«/š«š© ā šØš¬/š¬šŖ ā“ Ratio of the two sides is not same, So, we cannot use Basic Proportionality Theorem ā“ DE is not parallel to BC
