Converse of Basic proportionality theorem or Thales theorem
Imp rule use in this theorem is :-
:-You can add the same value to each side of an equation without changing the meaning of the equation:-
For example:- Ax = By
Ax+1=By+1
Theorem 6.2:-

Theorem 6.2:-
If a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio,then the line is parallel to the third side.
Proof:-
Given:-
△ABC and a line DE intersecting AB at D and AC at E,
To Prove:- DE∥BC
Construction:- Draw DE'∥BC
Proof:-
Since DE'∥BC
(By the Theorem if a line is drawn parallel to one side of triangle to intersect the other two sides in distinct points, the other two sides are divided in the same ratio.)
AD/DB=AE'/E'C.........(1)
and given that,
AD/DB=AE/EC....(2)
From (1) and (2)
AE'/E'C=AE/EC
Adding 1 on both sides
(AE'/E'C)+1=(AE/EC)+1
(AE'+E'C)/E'C=(AE+EC)/EC
AC/E'C = AC/EC
1/E'C =1/EC
EC=E'C
Thus, E and E' coincide
Since, DE'∥BC
∴ DE∥BC.
Hence, proved
