Solution

The correct option is A
$\frac{A G}{A D}$

In the $Δ$ ABC,
EF $∥$ BC
$∴$ $\frac{A E}{A B}$ = $\frac{A F}{A C}$ ......(1) [By BPT]

In $Δ$ ACD,
FG $∥$ CD
$∴$ $\frac{A F}{A C}$ = $\frac{A G}{A D}$ .......(2) [By BPT]

From (1) and (2), we get
$\frac{A E}{A B}$ = $\frac{A F}{A C}$ = $\frac{A G}{A D}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{A E}{A B}$ = $\frac{A G}{A D}$
