Please help me
Line RS intersects triangle BCD at two points and is parallel to segment DC.



Which statements are correct? Check all that apply.

△BCD is similar to △BSR.
BR/BD = BS/SC
If the ratio of BR to BD is 2/3 , then it is possible that BS = 6 and BC = 3.
(BR)(SC) = (RD)(BS)
BR/RS = BS/SC

Respuesta :

Answer: A and D are the correct statements.

1. In ΔBRS and ΔBDC

∠R=∠D and ∠S=∠C [∵ corresponding angles]

So by AA similarity criteria ,

△BCD is similar to △BSR.

2. As RS is parallel to DS then by basic proportionality theorem,

[tex]\frac{BR}{RD}=\frac{BS}{SC}[/tex]

⇒ B is not true.

3. As we can see BC is greater than BS ,so it cannot possible.

If [tex]\frac{BR}{BD}=\frac{2}{3}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{BR}{BD}=\frac{BS}{BC}[/tex]

where BS=6 then [tex]\Rightarrow\frac{2}{3}=\frac{6}{BC}\\\Rightarrow\ BC=9[/tex].

4. As RS is parallel to DS then by basic proportionality theorem,

[tex]\frac{BR}{RD}=\frac{BS}{SC}[/tex]

⇒BR×SC=RD×BS.

5. From 4 its not true that BR/RS = BS/SC.

Answer:

1. △BCD is similar to △BSR.

2. BR/RD = BS/SC

4. (BR)(SC) = (RD)(BS)
