Question

In $\Delta ABC$, if D and E are midpoints of AB and BC respectively, then $\frac{AD}{DB}$= $\times$ $\frac{BE}{EC}$

• A. 2
• B. 1
• C. 3

Answer 1

The correct option is B 1

Given D is a midpoint of AB.
$\Rightarrow$ AD = DB.
$\Rightarrow \frac{AD}{DB}=1$
$\Rightarrow$ D divides AB in the ratio 1 : 1
Similarly E also divides BC in the ratio of 1 : 1
$\Rightarrow \frac{AD}{DB}=1\times \frac{BE}{EC}$
